Why are you so good?
Why do you love me so much? I consistently fail to honor you with my life - choosing instead to follow pointless whims of the flesh. Yet you forgive me time and again - why? Even in my best moments I fall short of what you deserve - I can never give enough to you, oh Lord!
My life seems to be endless blessings, and yet so often I don't appreciate you - why do you continue to forgive and show grace to a sinner like me? Surely there are others much more deserving – I feel my sins weighing me down, and yet you pour out your blessings on me day after day!
Why do you love me so, my God?
It is true that I love you - deep in my soul I cry out for more of you, yet I still choose the wrong path so often. You are patient and loving even as I turn away - why Lord? You are too good, Father God!
Your love breaks me - tears of joy rise up in me! I know that I have done nothing that deserves this grace and forgiveness - it is only your loving kindness! I tremble at the thought of your wrath, knowing I have earned only this. Yet your tender mercies flow all around me - lighting my path and giving me indescribable joy, peace, and contentment.
Why are you so good to me, Lord?
