9-28-14 Under Grace

shackles_broken1

Now that you’ve come from that rugged cross

And left your sins up there on Calvary,

Now that the sting of death is at a loss,

And Jesus is the only face you see,

No longer are you subject to the law

That governed over Adam until now;

No longer sin has trapped you in it’s maw,

No longer made you slave behind the plow.

You are now under grace that won’t accuse,

Regenerating Christ inside of you;

If you should sin it’s only if you choose,

For Satan has no power to pursue.

You’ve come down off the cross under God’s grace;

Christ died for you that you might win the race.

 ~~~~~

For sin shall not have dominion over you:

for ye are not under the law, but under grace.

Romans 6:14 KJV

  1. If it were not for grace,
    I would not be writing in response
    to this lovely forthright gracious sonnet.
    HallELuJAH!
