Nothing But the Cross

Nothing But the Cross

Nowhere can I turn for help but to you
Oh Lord. You are 
The great physician who can
Heal my broken heart.
In You and You alone am I safe and
Nothing can harm my soul. You
Gave all through your son Jesus so my sins can be

Buried at the foot of the cross. I can be
Undisciplined in my life like a sheep
That has gone astray. But I know 

That I can turn back to the cross for
Help and You will always be there for
Even someone like me. Through

Communion we are commanded to
Remember the new covenant that
Offered us true
Salvation. Thank You Blessed
Savior.

It is hard to speak our hearts on so great a salvation! Peter, too, speaks of being stirred constantly to remembrance!
