God Became Man To Accomplish Our Redemption

This is the story of God's redemption
how He displays His love upon His own
in His masterplan of saving sinful man
His son Jesus Christ came our sins to atone

God looks down on this old world
seeing its sinfulness continues to abound
the good Lord is holy and without sin
He requires a perfect sacrifice to be found

The only perfect sacrifice would be Jesus
the only one that could take away sin
so our sin He took on Calvary's cross
that our salvation from sin He did win

God has here displayed perfect love
taken sinners to His own abode
removing their sin with His dear blood
applying upon HIs elect a secret code

This is the greatest story you have heard
God has saved sinners from hell's destruction
putting His own dear son in their place
paving the way for sinners to gain God's grace
