“If a man have committed a sin worthy of death… and thou hang him on a tree… he that is hanged is accursed of God” (Deuteronomy 21:22,23). “In the shadow of Thy wings will I make my refuge, until these calamities be overpast. I will cry unto God Most High; unto God that performeth all things for me… God shall send forth His mercy and His truth” (Psalm 57:1-3). “Grace and truth came by Jesus Christ” (John 1:17). “Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree” (Galatians 3:13).
The
curse of sin has rendered death.
Since
all have sinned, we all were cursed!
The
God from whom we borrow breath
Has
seen us at our very worst.
Can
we escape from our disgrace?
What
hope for sinners can there be?
Behold,
there is a Hiding Place
In
Christ who died at Calvary!
The
Law declares our condemnation
And
yet provides God’s wondrous plan
By
which He offers His salvation
Through
Christ who died for sinful man!
We
find our refuge now in Christ
Who
covers us beneath His wings.
Behold
our Savior sacrificed
Now
seated as the King of kings!
We
cry to God who thus performs
The
things that we could never do!
He
shelters us through all our storms;
His
mercies every day are new!
He
purged our vile sins as dross
With
grace and truth which by Him came.
He
ransomed us upon His cross;
How
rightly do we praise His name!
In
our calamity, O Lord,
You
gave Your life in our defense!
Forever
You shall be adored
By
every sinner who repents!
