Redemption

Redemption


What a fearfully wonderful gift of love
to serve the one true living God above

To have been chosen by Him before time
Free of any merit or choosing of mine.

To be chosen merely by His own delight
to receive the gift of new life by His might.

What a blessed change occurred in me
when my nature and will were forced to see

What a blessing that I did not get my way
that God pulled me back and had the last say

For death was the choice of my own way
but life was given to me on that day

God loved me in His infinite mercy
and in grace did He send Jesus for me.

Grace obtained through Jesus obedience and death
Faith was granted to us who have believeth

His grace, through the faith given us that day
resulted in redemption so we could say,

Glory to God in the Highest!
Holy, Holy, Holy is God the mightiest!

To Him be praise and glory forevermore
all things begin and end with God at the core.
