My Prayer

"We know what real love is because Jesus gave up His life for us. So we also ought to give up our lives for our brothers and sisters." 1 John 3:16

Just the other day as I prayed, I told God I would trade -

If I could give my life for his, 
I would do just that today. 

If I could give him my health to live, 
I would do it come what may. 

If I could trade his place for your sake, without question, my will would be done;

Because I've never known a sweeter love than a Man who traded His life for my own. 

Just the other day as I prayed, I told God I would trade.
