“I am the LORD which hallows you” (Leviticus 22:32). “The LORD is righteous in all His ways, and holy in all His works. The LORD is nigh unto all them that call upon Him, to all that call upon Him in truth. He will fulfill the desire of them that fear Him: He also will hear their cry, and will save them” (Psalm 145:17-19). “Praise our God… Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honor to Him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and His wife hath made herself ready. And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints” (Revelation 19:5-8).
The
Lord alone can make us holy
Without
a hint of compromise.
He
searches us and knows us fully
With
all our ways before His eyes.
Our
Lord is right in all His ways,
So
sin cannot be brushed aside.
How
rightly we declare His praise,
For
this why our Savior died!
The
Lord affirms that He is near
To
all who truly on Him call.
He
knows each one who is sincere,
And
He will justly save them all.
Our
Lord fulfills the deep desires
Of
all who fear and trust His name.
The
righteousness His Law requires
Was
met in full when Jesus came.
His
bride, the Church, is now in sight;
We
see at last how she prepares:
The
linen granted, clean and white,
Is
not her righteousness she wears!
The
spotless beauty of her dress
Reflects
the sinlessness of Christ
Who
granted us His righteousness
When
He, for us, was a sacrificed!
We
praise You, Lord, and we rejoice;
Your
love displayed is marvelous!
In
mercy You have heard our voice,
And
with Your life You ransomed us!
We
are partakers with Your saints,
For
You, O Lord, have made us fit
With
ready robes which no sin taints
Because
Your grace is infinite!
O
Lord, we stand before Your throne,
Since
we are boldly welcomed there,
And
pray that we may make You known
To
other hearts You will prepare.
Lord,
as Your Holy Spirit probes
And
still reproves the lost today,
We
show to them Your ready robes
You
give to those who humbly pray.
