At The Beginning Of Grace



 Romans 6:14
 For sin shall not have dominion over you: 
for ye are not under the law, but under grace.


At The Beginning Of Grace

 They mocked Him and they beat Him;
Slapped Him, Spit upon His face.
Scorned without mercy, they laughed.
Laying  upon Him disgrace.

He was stripped from His clothing;
And shoved, kicked, upon the ground.
Weeping and screaming was heard;
Violence the terr'ble sound.

They gave Him a robe of scarlet;
They platted a crown of thorns.
They placed it upon His head.
Then they laughed a King to scorn.

He could not be recognized;
His beard was plucked from His face.
They removed His royal robe;
In the sight of all debased.

Simon, a Cyrenian;
From the crowds became the cull.
 Followed Jesus with the cross;
Unto the place of the skull.

Then on  Calvary's Hill;
The nails were wedged in his hands.
And pounded into His feet.
His side pierced at hates command.

They sat back and they watch Him.
Then they walked by and scoffed Him;
Upon his dry thirsting lips;
They dabbed vinegar on them.

They nailed a sign of ridicule.
And sarcastically jeered Him.
Who Is This " King Of The Jews"?
Tell me now who will save him?

Father forgive them, he cried;
For they know not what they do.
It is finished, he proclaimed;
When He died for me and you.

Our Savior died amongst thieves;
But one believed and  found grace.
And awoke in paradise;
There beheld our Savior's face.

At the beginning of grace;
Everlasting life was met.
At the beginning of grace;
Our Savior paid our sin debt.

Like a sheep to the slaughter;
He willingly took our place.
On that day long, long ago;
At the beginning of grace.
