From Romans 3:23-25: “Since all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God; they are now justified by His grace as a gift, through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus, whom God put forward as a sacrifice of atonement by His blood, effective through faith.”

His Resurrection awakens a new pathway
Christ’s blood, painting it blazing white
Our Father remolds life, from a new clay
Pharisees claiming to be servants of God
Viewing our Lord as not worthy, a sinner
Walking with sinners makes Him a fraud
Son of Man, unblemished Lamb of God
No one but Jesus, can walk to the Cross
Humbled Christians kneel, totally flawed
Jesus’ blood ransomed for sinners, you and me
This executioner’s tool, a cruel criminal’s Cross
Darkest sins, all nailed to this old, rugged tree
Watching from a short distance, the Cross stands
God pours out His love through His faithful Son
Exchanging darkness for light, from His hands
Walking faithfully with Christ, never alone
Keeping the Cross, always front and center
Our Savior’s suffering, faith’s cornerstone
On an Easter morn, Christ defeats death
Leaving a darkened tomb empty, Alleluia!
Salvation and peace, with every breath
Moving closer to the Cross, forgiveness rings
Accepting Christ as Lord, filled with His mercy
Making a new covenant with Jesus, hearts sing

From John 15:10-11: “If you keep my commandments, you will abide in my love, just as I have kept my Father’s commandments and abide in His love. I have said these things to you so that my joy may be in you, and that your joy may be complete.”
