“The LORD raised up a deliverer to the children of Israel, who delivered them” (Judges 3:9). “Rejoice in the LORD, ye righteous; and give thanks at the remembrance of His holiness” (Psalm 97:12). “The Word which God sent unto the children of Israel, preaching peace by Jesus Christ (He is Lord of all)… And He commanded us to preach unto the people, and to testify that it is He which was ordained of God to be the Judge of quick and dead. To Him give all the prophets witness, that through His name whosoever believeth in Him shall receive remission of sins” (Acts 10:36-43).
Give
thanks to God who gave a Savior
To
Israel and every nation,
For
none of us deserved His favor,
Since
we had earned His condemnation!
Rejoice,
you righteous, knowing this:
Your
righteousness has come from Christ!
God’s
holy standard that we miss
Was
met when He was sacrificed.
The
Word God sent to Israel
When
Christ our Lord came from above
Declared
His peace that saves from hell.
Behold
the manner of His love!
We
preach the peace He bought for us,
Which
God commands us to proclaim.
Amazing
love, so marvelous!
Give
thanks and praise His holy name!
There
is a coming Great White Throne
Where
Christ will give His judgment sentence,
Yet
now is His salvation shown
To
all who come in true repentance.
We’re
preaching peace by Christ’s command;
He
sends us by His great commission,
Declaring
now to every land:
In
Christ we find our sins’ remission!
O
Lord, we preach that peace begins
Precisely
when our fear departs:
The
moment You remove our sins
Is
when You come into our hearts!
