Hide in Him

"How shall we escape, if we neglect so great salvation?.... But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels for the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honor, that He, by the grace of God, should taste death for every man. For it became Him, for whom are all things, and by whom are all things, in bringing many sons to glory, to make the Captain of their salvation perfect through sufferings" (Hebrews 2:3-10).

None escape the consequence
Of their neglect of God's salvation;
Heaven has but one Defense
To save the soul from condemnation.

Searching every hiding place
On earth in every size and shape,
We find not one provides the grace
To offer sinners an escape.

But we see Jesus tasting death,
And bringing many sons to glory,
Fighting to His final breath:
The Captain of redemption's story!

Hide in Him without delay;
He ever lives to save the lost!
Boast not of another day;
Neglect demands an awful cost!

Thank You, Lord, that You became
The Lamb of God to purge our sin.
We find a refuge in Your name
For every soul You died to win!
