Gift of Grace

Date:

Praise the Father of our Lord,
God has blest us every day;
Spiritual blessings so adored,
That Heaven has sent down this way.

Before creation of the world,
God had chosen us through His Son;
Perfect as His plan was unfurled,
To forfeit the Anointed One.

Because of His love He resolved,
Adopt us through Jesus Christ;
But the requirement involved,
His true Son to be sacrificed.

He freely chose to do this act,
So the kindness that was given;
As a means for to interact,
With the Father up in Heaven.

Through the blood that comes from His Son,
We are set free from our sin;
So that victory has been won,
From the iniquities within.

God forgives faults of our ways,
From His overflowing kindness;
Every time one of us strays,
Giving insight to cure blindness.

He pours out kindness by giving,
All kinds of insight and wisdom;
If in the light of the living,
Just the ticket for His Kingdom.

When He revealed the mystery,
God decided to do through Christ;
And planned to bring all history,
After His Son is sacrificed.

Then Jesus Christ would be the head,
Everything in Heaven and earth;
So each one of us could be fed,
With the nourishment of true worth.

You heard and believed the message,
The truth of the Good News does save;
And gives you the right of passage,
To Heaven rescued from the grave.

Richard Sherrer is actually retired from the United States Air Force about 14 years ago. He had lived in Korea while in the Air Force in 1972 and 1973. You might be asking yourself what brought him back to Korea. I guess you could say that it was a lot of love here, for the country, the people and especially for a Christian woman that he met on the Internet. She convinced him to return to be with her. So he came originally to teach English in July of 2000. They were married July of 2001. Now turned poet which is subject that is near and dear to his heart. His love for Christ and God is an inspiration to all who read his poetry.
