HIS Amazing Grace
HIS Amazing Grace
Amazing Grace… a favored Hymn…
strikes a chord in me.
It tells of our LORD JESUS…
and how HE died to set us free.
There’s other phrases in this song
I can bring to memory…
Specifically the group of words…
“that saved a wretch like me.”
I “do” find it amazing…
that HE would give me grace…
To sacrifice HIS ONLY SON…
to Die in my own place.
Unmerited Favor is sometimes cited…
as defining “grace”.
HIS favor is upon us all…
Our sins HE did erase.
When I hear the words and song…
I’m convicted of my sin.
I experience tears of joy…
that begin, from deep within.
I cannot hear this melody…
without remembering the cross.
I think how JESUS died for us…
we’re saved through our GOD’S loss.
To those who haven’t yet been saved…
it’s just a simple tune.
Believers that do know the truth…
know HE is coming soon.
So when you hear this song again…
wherever it is played…
Remember GOD has saved us all…
from places we have strayed.
We’re saved by grace of GOD we know…
and not because we’re good.
Some folks should get a hold on this…
and thank HIM like they should.
If you meet an unbeliever…
tell them of GOD’S grace HE’S shown.
Give them opportunity…
to become one of GOD’S own.
Perhaps you’ll be rebutted…
you’ll never know until you try.
We should tell them of our GOD…
our time is passing by.
There’s more to life than breathing air…
and taking up a space.
When they are saved… they’ll realize…
our GOD’S … Amazing Grace.
