Prophets of old long since foretold Of the grace to come through the eternal One Who'd die so all from death go free, and give them life eternally For our sins He paid the price, that the just Law did demand And it demanded sacrifice, the sacrifice-a sinless man He wondered that there was none else, yet mankind couldn't save themselves And come He did as so it seems, proved by great miracles and teachings The likes of which no one had seen, yet they still were unbelieving And as foretold by prophecy, they crucified and killed Him Condemned for nought in pain He stood, our sins paid for with our God's blood The path of pain was His to trod; both Son of man, and Son of God Gave us the best He had to give, God died alone so we could live But death could not contain Him. And so He rose again. That all who trust in Him go free from death, and sin, and misery God broke our chains from death and Hell, they finally from the devil fell Free-given gift all can receive, accept the gift, their sins to leave But the world never thinks on this, few want it on their mind The way of life that's straight and narrow few will ever find Many claim His friendship, never making His acquaintance They trust in their own righteousness, never showing Him obeisance But saying one's His follower doesn't mean they are; anymore than going in garages makes someone a car We need only confess our sins, and then turn solely unto Him Believe He did what He has done, and finally to ask the Son For that great gift He died to give, and we're no longer dead, but live But faith there's one God's not enough, the devils too believe Repentance-Confession-Acceptance-are also what we need Tis' the Gospel of Salvation, which shall be told to every nation The way to life remains the same, we needn't know another name Then of our God who died, to have the gifts He died to give-forgiveness, peace, and life Eternal life with Him is given for which many are so driven; yet they will not trust alone the Saviour-God upon the throne Head of the church, above all things; who angels serve, above all beings Raised on high for what He's done, the Father glorifies His Son And all at last shall bow the knee when at the last the Word they see And those which know Him we will know, for these are they which do do so As He commanded, dwell in love, for others and our God above So for evil good we give, same love with which He made us live And if we do He dwells in us, for which we have His own promise His Father and the Spirit too, who teach us all we ought to do Straight from His Word which ever lives, God's Word-the Bible, that He gives And so we are complete, in our God who died to save, who rose again and we in Him, have all we'll ever need He gave the gift that can't be priced; all by Him to life enticed He pulled on death the master heist: My only Master, Jesus Christ
