His Cup or Our Cup?

Yes He drank, facing wrath
God’s judgment for sin
Tho’ not for Himself
But, the wicked to win.

His Blood

O, the blood of Jesus
More precious, than all gold
Washes sinners, clean and pure
Such grace, our God unfolds.

Freedom

So surrender, repent
Set free, for His call
Breaking all bondage
Ask God’s Spirit fall.

Forgiving Others

if we forgive others
For their trespasses against us
Our Father forgives us
Will cleanse us, thro’ Jesus.

Forgiveness

Forgiveness depends
Not on the offender
They may have done wrong
Jesus tells us, be a forgiver.

Forgiveness or Feelings

While Jesus, showed love
Forgiveness, not hate
Building bridges, not walls
To unite, not separate.

Do We See Jesus?

Perfected through suffering
Captain of our salvation
Saved many thro’ affliction
Bought our sanctification.

Cleaning House…with Jacob

With death to your old life
In Christ, be made new
Once a Jacob, now an Israel
Ask His Spirit, change you.

Church Ritual or Christ?

Each pew and each person
Tells a story, their life
For some, true commitment
For others, a mere rite.

Brokenness to Blessing

But God often uses
The fires, great strife
Finally gets our attention
To teach lessons of life.
