THE REST OF MY LIFE

(Unknown)

I - Part of my life brings tears of regret
    And part of my life I would rather forget
    Part of my life I can never recall
    But the rest of my life, I'll atone for it all.

Ref: Yes, part of my life to false idols I bowed
       And part of my life I just followed the crowd
       Yes, part of my life is a story of sin
       But the rest of my life, I will honor God's name.

II - Freely I drank from life's glittering cup
      So deep, in my shame I could hardly look up
      Broken and spent to the Saviour I cried
      Now the rest of my life, we will walk side by side.

Ref:

III - Too many years I squandered in sin
        And too many years, I was bitter within
       Tears of regret is the price I must pay
       But the rest of my life, God can have His own way.

Ref:

We sang this song at church when I was a child. I just recently remembered it, and couldn't find it anywhere! I couldn't remember some of the words. Where did you find it? Thanks for posting it!

I found it in a pile of paper trash in our school along with collections of old church songs and hymns. The lyrics struck me and i wanted to share it through this blog.... I'm so glad you found it striking also. thanks..
