Grace and Mercy

At the proper time,
When we were helpless;
Christ died for the crime,
That we should confess.

Jesus Christ died for,
Ungodly people;
As caught by the lure,
Snubbing the Gospel.

Someone who would die,
For others is rare;
Many wonder why,
Of love He would share.

Christ died for each one,
Who are still sinners;
For God gave His Son,
So we become winners.

Since Christ gave His blood,
God gave approval;
Baptized in the flood,
Deathly removal.

Christ saves from the wrath,
Kinship is restored;
We walk down His path,
Being our Lord.

We can continue,
To brag about God;
Proclaim what is true,
To honor and laud.

Sin came on the earth,
By one who came first;
Corrupting each birth,
Causing you to thirst.

So death came from sin,
Starting before laws;
Without discipline,
To understand flaws.

Death ruled at this time,
Till God shed His grace;
As Christ paid for crime,
So He could embrace.
