Infinite Bridge

The sweet Lamb of God was born to be the bridge spanning the gulf between destruction and peace; I can only cross safely because He paid the price, demanded by justice for my soul's release. Chorus: No mountain was ever higher than His cross of agony; no gulf was ever wider than the one crossed for me. His steps never faltered as Christ carried sin's load, all alone to atone up Calvary's road. His arms formed a bridge between heaven and hell, stretching so wide to bring deliverance by grace. His arms carry me surely across the deep divide; His blood paid the ransom my sin to erase. Chorus: No mountain was ever higher than His cross of agony; no gulf was ever wider than the one crossed for me. His steps never faltered as Christ carried sin's load, all alone to atone up Calvary's road. Bridge: Infinite bridge, Incarnate Lamb, Jesus Christ Savior, the eternal I AM. I can only cross safely because He paid the price, demanded by justice for my soul's release. Faye Lanham Gibson Copyright, October 8, 2014
