The Empire Strikes Back

Mercy is granted because GOD the FATHER is LOVE
He cares, and HE is LONG-SUFFERING
However, you must know
When it is time for our LORD to act
We know that HE will—that is a fact

The Empire Strikes Back
The magnitude of the Lord’s fire should never be forgotten
God gave His only begotten Son, Jesus, the Holy One

The fall of man could not stop the Lord's purpose
The call for justice brought the Glory of the Kingdom
The story of salvation declares the Power of the Blood of Jesus
Man can now be forgiven if he accepts the plan of salvation and
He can once again receive the Holy Spirit

An oxymoron declares the Glory of the Lord
Our enemy thought that he would win on that day
But the book of Genesis declared that our enemy would lose

Jesus died on the Cross; Jesus won on the Cross
He rose from the dead; Jesus lives forevermore
The empire strikes back, and now man is on track
He can fulfil the Lord's purpose and glorify God on earth

Jesus died on the Cross; Jesus won on the Cross
The Cross is victorious; This is glorious

The empire strikes back!
