Purged with a Price

Read:  Psalm 65 / Proverbs 12 / Exodus 10 / 1 Corinthians 6 

 

Psalm 65:3,4 ~ Iniquities prevail against me: as for our transgressions, thou shalt purge them away... we shall be satisfied with the goodness of thy house, even of thy holy temple.

Proverbs 12:20 ~ To the counselors of peace is joy.

Exodus 10:2 ~ Tell in the ears of thy son, and of thy son's son, what things I have...  done among them; that ye may know how that I am the LORD.

1 Corinthians 6:19-20 ~ What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost... and ye are not your own? For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's.

 

Though our iniquities prevailed,

The Lord has purged them all away.

His promised mercy never failed,

Though we, like sheep, had gone astray.

 

The purging of Your people, Lord,

Has come by Your self-sacrifice. 

No lesser love could thus afford

Salvation at so great a price!
