"How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of him that bringeth good tidings, that publisheth peace... Behold, My Servant shall deal prudently... His visage was so marred more than any man, and His form more than the sons of men" (Isaiah 52:7-14). "But God, who is rich in mercy, for His great love wherewith He loved us, even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ; by grace ye are saved... through Christ Jesus... for He is our Peace" (Ephesians 2:4-14).
The
price of our peace is declared
By
those who are bringing good news:
God's
Servant, His Son was not spared;
Behold
Him whom sinners abuse!
Behold
Him with visage so marred;
He
hid not His face from such shame.
Behold
Him with hands and feet scarred:
The
Lord Jesus Christ is His name!
How
great is the love of our Lord!
How
hopeless was our situation!
His
mercy alone could afford
The
price to procure our salvation!
O
Lord, as we ponder the price
For
peace that You freely impart,
Astonished
at Your sacrifice,
We
worship with all of our heart!
