Jeremiah 30:8

Some said

This is he

Others said

He is like him

But I said

I am the one

Yes, I am the one

Washed in Jesus's blood

I am the one set free by His love

I am the one touched by Jesus's hands

The one resurrected by His command

To live, to live, to live

To live, to live, to live

Live, live, live

Jesus has shown me His way

His truth, His life

I am saved and safe

In Him

A wonderful change has come over me

A divine new beginning has manifested

I am a new creature in Christ

Walking in the newness of life

Some said

This is he

Others said

He is like him

But I said

I am he

I am the one

I am the one(John 9:9)

I was oppressed by the devil for years, but God did not allow me to be consumed. Jesus rescued me with a mighty hand. He delivered me on time--His time, the right time. He brought me out. He healed me. He taught me how to live, to move, and to have my being, in Him. God brought me out grateful, trusting, believing, and loving Him with all of my heart. I came out knowing that the true and living God (the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit) can do anything and will do anything He says He will do for His children. God keeps His promises always.
