Turning to God with sincere faith
Means less depravity,
And more of walking in God's ways,
From sin to be set free.
Turning to God transforms us all
Who truly do believe.
Our thoughts will change how we will live,
Like Christ whom we receive.
Turning to God will make us see
Love through a different lens,
So love that's more than feeling good
Makes caring more intense.
Turning to God who wants us all
To serve the needs we see,
Helps us somehow to find ourselves
As we were meant to be.
Turning to God will lead us home,
To our great destiny.
And what a joy for us to know
We'll live eternally.
