“Who can understand his errors? Cleanse Thou me… O LORD, my Strength, and my Redeemer” (Psalm 19:12,14). “A man that hath friends must shew himself friendly: and there is a Friend that sticketh closer than a brother” (Proverbs 18:24). “For there is one God, and one Mediator between God and men, the Man Christ Jesus, who gave Himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time” (1 Timothy 2:5,6).
Our
secret and our open errors
Are
sins God ponders on our path.
How
fearful are the coming terrors
For
those unmindful of His wrath!
This
outlook makes us realize
How
great our need is for salvation!
We
need a plan supremely wise
That
rescues us from condemnation!
We
need a way from our Creator
To
reconcile God and man.
Praise
God! There is a Mediator!
His
Gospel has declared His plan!
He
came from heaven to defend
Our
souls, and thus was sacrificed!
Behold
the Word made flesh, our Friend,
Our
Mediator, Jesus Christ!
The
plan of God is marvelous
Whereby
we may be reconciled:
Our
Savior gave Himself for us
To
ransom souls by sin defiled!
O
Lord, we never could have dreamed
That
such a plan could be in place
By
which You freely have redeemed
And
reconciled us with grace!
We
thank You, Lord, for what You did
As
Man in Your humility.
As
Mediator now You bid
The
sinner from Your wrath to flee.
As
Man and Mediator, Lord,
We
magnify You as our Savior
To
show the lost Your great reward
For
all who trust You as their Savior!
