Mercy, Love And Grace – Bible study

Behold what mercy, love and grace
That One would die and take my place
On Calvarys hill so far away
My debt for sin He died to pay.

The sinless one became our sin
That life anew we might begin.
Now cleansed and made before Him whole
We look ahead to heavens goal.

We live so when that day has come
Well stand and hear Him say, Well done.
With Him above, well take our place
Because of mercy, love and grace.

Let us praise Him forever more
For on that cross, our sins He bore
That we could stand before Him whole
While life eternal waits the soul.

James E. Gibbons, late editor of The Sword and Staff
