MERCY, LOVE, AND GRACE IN CHRIST ALONE
(Tune:
Soldiers of Christ, Arise #403 SMD)
Sinners,
hear and be wise,
Trust
not men's dreams and lies;
Apart
from Christ, God's holy power
All
sinners must devour!
All
think that God is good;
That's
true, but hear your God,
"The
soul that sinneth, it shall die!"
On that
you may rely.
Yet,
Christ was crucified,
Now God is justified
To
pardon sin through His shed blood
And
still be the just God.
God's
love is in His Son;
He's
love, but there alone!
You
must not think he will, or may
Pardon
another way.
God's mercy must be sought
The way
that He has taught:
`Tis Jesus' sin-atoning blood
Gives
access unto God.
In
mercy He delights,
But
mercy is in Christ!
In Him
there's grace and mercy such
That none can trust too much!
