Through His Blood
Our Father
1John 4:10
Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins. (KJV)
Our Father
Though man perhaps may be impelled
By love to die for kin or friend, (Jn.15:13),
The boundless love of God excels
As love to even foe extends.(Rom.5:8)
Through sun's first light saw God my fall,(1Pet.19-20)
As one with Adam's flesh and bone (Rom.5:12).
Yet sent his Son to suffer all (Rev.13:8),
For all my guilt and sins foreknown.
Forgiven sin; were that the sum (Col.2:14),
No stream of never ending words
Could match my thanks for what He'd done
But greater still His love conferred (Eph.1:3)
For where the Suff'ring Servant hung (Is.53:5)
Was burned a Way for me to hide (Gen.2:21-22)
And be for God and for His Son,
Adopted child and chosen bride (1Jn.3:1, Rev.21:2)
