Just deserve ...


1 Peter 3:18 

18 Because Christ also suffered once for sins,
the just for the unjust, to bring you to God,
by being put to death in the flesh
but by being made alive in the spirit.

 

We want to see men punished and get their “just” deserve

as something deep within ... calls for justice unabated

One look in the mirror should recognize the self

who in his own way is guilty ... of crime that others hated

 

Thanks for Grace my Savior ... thanks for what You’ve done.

Thanks for paying fully ... for all my wrongs.

Thank You for forgiveness ... after my guilt was proved.

There is no doubt about it ... my righteousness is You.
