Here's The Message We're Proclaiming
(Tune: Hold The Fort #409 85.85D)
Love beyond our comprehending,
Grace so rich and free -
God, our Father, chose a people
From eternity!
In the cov'nant of God's mercy,
Christ, our Surety, stood,
And agreed to make atonement
By His precious blood.
In the time of God's appointing,
Jesus came to die:
As the Substitute for sinners,
Christ was crucified.
All the sins of God's elect ones
Were on Jesus laid;
And all that God's law demanded,
Christ has fully paid.
Here's the message we're proclaiming –
"Christ can never fail!
Jesus' blood and intercession
Must with God prevail!
All for whom our Savior suffered
Must in glory stand;
Nothing's left to be accomplished
By the sinner's hand."
Are you called by grace to trust Him?
Do you now believe?
If you do believe in Jesus,
You'll forever live,
You are one of God's elect ones,
You are justified!
Life and faith for you were purchased
When Christ Jesus died.
