ATONING GRACE

ATONING GRACE 


By sin's atoning grace, God's Son took
My place...sealed my pardon with his
Blood, as it freely flowed for everyone,
The price he paid for you and me, and

It cost him everything...laying on the
Altar of death's sacrificial giving...he
Rose the third day....extended life to
Us, forgives in the land of the living!
