"Many there be which say of my soul, There is no help for him in God… But Thou, O LORD, art a Shield for me; my Glory, and the Lifter up of mine head… Salvation belongeth unto the LORD: Thy blessing is upon Thy people" (Psalm 3:2,3,8). "It is written, Cursed is every one that continueth not in all things which are written in the book of the law to do them… 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: that the blessing… might come" (Galatians 3:10,13,14).
It does not
matter who has said:
"There is
no help for him in God,"
For Christ, the
Lifter of my head,
Has borne for me
God's judgment rod.
Let every liar
be reproved:
There is no
other name or fashion
Whereby our curse
can be removed
Apart from
Christ through His compassion.
We would be
cursed, as it is written,
And great would
be our endless loss,
But Jesus Christ
for us was smitten,
To bear our
curse upon His cross.
How great is
Your compassion, Lord,
That found a way
to save the worst!
You gave Your
life to thus afford
The way to bless
those who were cursed!
