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.

Jesus Knows



Jesus Knows

Jesus knew He would die;

A merciless death.
He knew they would mock;
With no tenderness.

Jesus  knew the high cost;
And paid it in blood.
As they pounded the nails;
With each sounding thud.

Jesus knew forgiveness;
For those that scourged Him.
And cried for their souls;
As He paid for their sin.

He knew the  great horror:
He would have to face.
He knew He had power;
To leave from its place.

He knew of redemption;
And what it would take.
He freely did suffer;
For yours and my sake.

He  knew He'd have vic'try;
Over deaths sway.
He would conquer the curse;
Resurrection day.

He knows more than your name;
And He knows your shame.
He knows all your burdens;
He knows all your pain.

He knows that He's the Way;

The Light and the Truth.
He knows He's the answer
He's calling to you.

Optional Chorus:

He knows, yes He knows;
He knows your name;
And He loves you so.

He knew, Yes He knew;
He knew He'd shed;
His precious blood for you.
