Christ Came

Read:  Psalm 89 / Proverbs 26 / 1 Samuel 19 /John 6

Psalm 89:14-16 Justice and judgment are the habitation of thy throne: mercy and truth shall go before thy face. Blessed is the people that know the joyful sound... In thy name shall they rejoice all the day... in thy righteousness shall they be exalted.
Proverbs 26:2 The curse causeless shall not come.
1 Samuel 19:4 Let not the king sin... against David... because his works have been to thee-ward very good.
John 6:35,51 I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst.  I am the living bread which came down from heaven.

God’s justice and judgment above
Enthroned in His high habitation
Went forth with His truth and His love,
Removing our curse with salvation. 

Christ gave up His splendor and crown,
And just as the Scriptures had said,  
With mercy and truth He came down
From heaven as life-giving bread.
