My Savior's Smile

Your smile for me,  my Savior,
Despite  my faults and failures,
Invites me to come nearer,
Makes You seem even dearer.

Your smile for me,  my Savior,
Despite  my faults and failures,
Is but a look of  sympathy,
A gaze which gives me dignity.

Your smile for me,  my Savior,
Despite  my faults and failures,
Redeems my life from loneliness
And fills my soul with happiness.

Your smile for me,  my Savior,
Despite my faults and failures,
Reveals your Heart and open Arms,
Your pledge of safety from all harm.
                                   
Your smile for me,  my Savior,
Despite  my faults and failures,
Is so sincere and so complete
My life is laid at your dear Feet.
