"Thy vows are upon me, O God… For Thou hast delivered my soul from death: wilt not Thou deliver my feet from falling?" (Psalm 56:12,13). "By mercy and truth iniquity is purged: and by the fear of the LORD men depart from evil" (Proverbs 16:6). "They shall know that I am the LORD, and that I have not said in vain that I would do this" (Ezekiel 6:10). "Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning" (James 1:17).
The vows of Jesus
Christ my Lord
Which were
completed on the cross
Remind me why I
have adored
The One who
purged my sins as dross.
My Lord was by
His own love urged
To make His vows
of truth and grace,
And thus my sins
by Him were purged
When Jesus bore
them in my place.
The vows of
Christ were not in vain
Which were
foretold in prophecy.
The Scriptures made
it very plain
That Christ
would purge iniquity.
O Christ, as I
now view Your vows
To bring
salvation from above,
My heart in
worship humbly bows,
Astonished at
Your wondrous love!
