"How shall we escape,
if we neglect so
great salvation; which
at the first began
to be spoken by the
Lord."
Hebrews 2:3
God is the hope for this messed up world.
Will men cry out to our loving Lord?
He’s the answer to their hearts dismay.
How long will men linger in delay?
Trapped in the sins of this dark, dark world,
Tossed all about in confused discord;
Troubled daily, lost, no hope, no light,
Tangled in a web and cannot fight;
Jesus gave His life, He gave His all.
Hear His voice, Oh hear His call.
“I conquered hell, sin and the grave;
“Tell All! I Am the power that saves.”
Forgiveness is a beautiful thing.
Forgiveness causes children to cling.
Held in His safety, under His wing;
Speaking His praises and moved to sing.
Glory to God, we’ll worship our King.
We and bright angels will ever sing.
Those that will trust Him, yes, they will bring;
Thanks for His blood and His suffering.
Thank you and praise you, Oh, God above;
For dying for all, and giving your love.
Thank you and praise, Oh, Great Lord;
For giving your Son, to die for this world.
The trapped soul, in sin can be made free;
The blinded tossed, be healed and see.
The troubled life, can now be whole.
The tangled sinner, a saved new soul.
Thank-you and praise you, Oh, God above;
For dying for all, giving your love.
Thank –you forever , our Great, Great Lord;
You gave yourself, a gift to this world.
Forgiveness is a beautiful thing.
Forgiveness, a gift from our Great King.
Offered to all men, who will receive.
Will you hear His call? Will you believe?
Forgiveness is a beautiful thing.
Salvation’s waiting now, will you cling?
Today is the day of Salvation.
Hear now His call, escape damnation.
Forgiveness is waiting for you, friend.
A New Life, A new start will begin.
Forgiveness is a beautiful thing;
Jesus covers you, under His wing.
Galatians 5:1
Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.
Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.
Romans 6
But God be thanked, that ye were the servants of sin, but ye have obeyed from the heart that form of doctrine which was delivered you. whereto ye were delivered}
Being then made free from sin, ye became the servants of righteousness.
