Oh To See My Name Written In His Wounds
The son of God in human flesh
Jesus Christ incarnate was He
came here with one purpose in mind
to save mankind and set them free
This He accomplished on Calvary's tree
there Jesus the Godman was crucified
paying the price for our sins
taking our place for us He died
Ponder afresh at this unselfishness
the eternal God in mankind's place
shedding His blood in full atonement
displaying God's magnificent grace
Now look at His wounds
is your name written there?
has Jesus blood covered your sin?
by faith believing can you dare?
Oh to see my name written in His wounds
such an honour is given to those that believe
who can confess that they've been ransomed
from eternal death never again to grieve
AUTHOR NOTES: When listening to Stuart Townend's marvellous worship song 'The power of the cross', these thoughts came to me thinking on God's great love in giving His son for our sins.
Watch it on youtube if you wish.
