The Cost of Salvation

Yet, He bids us to follow
We must take up, our cross
Abide in Him daily
Count all things as loss.

In God’s Vine, keep abiding
As His branch, bearing fruit
Stay dependent, keep praying
Christ-likeness, your pursuit.

So instead of your resentments
Repent, come seek His light
Washed clean, of all your sin
Be now forgiven, in Christ.

The verdict is in
And, ‘self’ has to die
Against our carnal cravings
Long deceived, by a lie.

Seek, true fruits of repentance
As you search your heart
A new walk, not just talk
By God’s Spirit, a new start.

In scripture and song
In prayer, listen too
Expect to meet God
He is waiting for you.

So, ponder sin’s price
Such suffering, separation
Jesus’ death on a cross
For His own creation.

So lay aside, our excuses
And false ‘religious’ façade
Come humbly and repent
Seek transformation, from God.

Our nation is filled
Churches lukewarm, some dead
Claiming they’re Christian
But God’s Spirit has fled.

Remove this heart of stone
So cold, full of sin
LORD, grant a new heart
Your Spirit, within.
