Almighty Arm


"O sing unto the LORD a new song... His right hand, and His holy arm, hath gotten Him the victory... The LORD hath made known His salvation... All the ends of the earth have seen the salvation of our God" (Psalm 98:1-3).  "Mine own arm brought salvation unto Me" (Isaiah 63:5).  "Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us... [He] took it out of the way, nailing it to His cross... having spoiled principalities and powers... triumphing over them" (Colossians 2:14,15). 

The mighty arm of God is shown,
Which prophets clearly had foretold;
In all the earth He has made known
His great salvation we behold. 

It was His own almighty arm
That brought salvation from above. 
He died to rescue us from harm,
Compelled by His unending love.

His law demanded condemnation;
How hopeless then we all would be
If Christ withheld from us salvation
Which by His arm has made us free! 

Lord, thank You for Your love unfailing
Upon Your cross so marvelous   
Where Your almighty arm was nailing
Our sins You blotted out for  us!
