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.

This Christmas, remember
The gift that God gave
His beloved dear Son
To seek and to save.

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.

From my selfishness, pride
And self-centered ways
This hardness, indifference
Transform me… I pray!

We pray, a great harvest
Throughout Libya, it’s people
Muslims embracing Christ
Turned from darkness and evil.

His strength, for your weakness
His glory, for your shame
His favor, for your fumbling
Praise His wonderful Name.

Not by blood, of bulls nor goats
Could never pay, the full price
For all our sinful, rebellion
We need a new life, in Christ.

For the shed blood of Jesus
Could cancel, not just cover
The sin of men’s hearts
There is none other.
