I never knew what is was    to fear the Lord Though I've read of his anger    and death by his sword I've never heard anyone speak    of anything other than his love Never heard tales of anything    other than that of grace from above No one ever told me     God sure kicked my butt today No one ever warned me     of the horror I'd face someday But now I fear that    I face that wrath On my account    for my choice of path And now I know     What it is to fear the Lord I tremble at his heel     and grow meek in his word And I have no excuse    or even a case to plea All I do is tremble    And beg my life be free And it is so scary     to await his final decision I tremble with a hole in my soul    A monstorous incision You see, I fell into sin    Something I thought I could not And I know my soul is safe    But I await my body to rot And all I can say is Sorry     And promise it won't happen Again Of course this is not the truth    I'll fail and again let the cycle begin But Lord to you I owe thanks    Whatever your decision be I've learned something very valuable    the fear of the Lord is in me And now thiers nothing to do    more than wait Which emotion will grasp the Lord    Pity, Love or Hate

Additional Notes:
I'm sorry the grammar is so poor. I try to avoid periods and commas whenever possible =) And if anyone cares it was Love, which i should have known all along, but it was an emotional time
