What about my sinful past?
And my conscience has no rest.
Deep within I feel the pain.
I’m condemned from all my guilty stains.
And my conscience has no rest.
Deep within I feel the pain.
I’m condemned from all my guilty stains.

O my life of misery,
In this world of vanity,
As I searched for happiness,
My reward I received just emptiness.
In this world of vanity,
As I searched for happiness,
My reward I received just emptiness.

God was far away from me,
Great and highest One is He.
Yet You took on humanity.
You came for me,
Hung on a tree,
Bled there to die for me.
Great and highest One is He.
Yet You took on humanity.
You came for me,
Hung on a tree,
Bled there to die for me.
That’s why I love Him.
That’s why I treasure Him.
That’s why I give my life and all to Him.
That’s why I love Him.
That’s why I treasure Him.
That’s why I give my life and all to Him.
That’s why I treasure Him.
That’s why I give my life and all to Him.
That’s why I love Him.
That’s why I treasure Him.
That’s why I give my life and all to Him.

That's why we love You. That's why we treasure You. That's why we give our lives and all for You. Because You loved us first and gave Yourself for us rebellious sinners. Thank You, Lord Jesus! May we give each moment, each day, and every detail of our lives to You for Your desire on this earth. We love You, Lord!

This hymn reminds me of what I am before the Lord. I am nothing and not worthy in His eyes but because of His unmeasurable love He saves from this world of vanities. What I can only say: Lord, I love You in return.

O my life of misery,
In the world of vanity,
As I searched for happiness,
My reward I received just emptiness.
Thank the Lord that the time I searched again, I found Him and I received emptiness no more..
It's nice to think that I received Him, and not just even me but also you.

This song really have touched me when I first sang it in the year-end training. it tells us to love and treasure the Lord, giving everything to the Lord. Saints, how we need to be those who are pure in heart and who are pure and single for the Lord's goal, with a heart that seeks only the Lord.

Dear saints, no matter how high our spiritual attainments may be, as long as we are still in the old creation, if we do not remain in the fellowship with God, we are capable of being in the flesh and of behaving like the worldly people. That is why we need to love Him. Amen.

This song is so wonderful in that it simply describes what we were. I would still live in vanity without God's love. Praise the Lord! The great and highest One took on humanity, was hung on a tree, and bled there to die for me! Lord, I love You.

I've fallen in love while listening to this song because just the meaning of it is so especially touching. Instead of thinking too much about my sinful past, I can put my conscience to rest because the Lord came for me, hung on a tree, and bled there to die for me. Lord, I want to love You all of my days.
