"I will hear what God the Lord will speak: for He will speak peace unto His people, and to His saints.... Mercy and truth are met together; righteousness and peace have kissed each other" (Psalm 85:8,10).
God the Lord has spoken peace,
But He did more than speak.
He could not compromise the least
The judgment peace must seek.
Alas, we had no righteousness!
God knew what He must do
To pay the price that He might bless
And save His people too.
Righteousness and peace have kissed,
For God has reconciled
All the righteousness we missed
Because we were defiled.
Oh the price love had to pay!
For us our Savior died!
He purchased peace that He might say
Our debt is satisfied!
