“But God, being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which he loved us, even when we were dead in our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ—by grace you have been saved— and raised us up with him and seated us with him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus,” Ephesians 2:4-6 ESV
The Lord our God is gracious and merciful
Slow to anger, abounding in steadfast love
In His promises we remain forever hopeful
Awaiting the return of the Light from above!
God has shown His awesome love for us
In that while we in darkness kept on sinning
Christ died for us because of righteousness
The merciful plan of God from the beginning!
For our sake He made His only Son to be sin
But when Christ arose from a borrowed grave
We who believe were made alive with him
And by his marvelous grace we are saved!
So He has raised us, the unworthy, up with him
And in him has seated us in heavenly places
Rejoicing forever for His mercies never end
Hallelujah for the day we meet him face to face!
