O Love Divine... O matchless Grace...

One of my favorite song for this week. Even got to sing it on Sunday. I really enjoyed how the harmony of the song along with the words kind of slowly reveal God's redemption work for us, and with each stanza to end in relation to me, or to you who happen to read this.

It's near impossible to fathom this Divine Love, this matchless Grace expect with a worshipful singing of this:

My Jesus, fair, was pierced by thorns,
By thorns grown from the fall.
Thus He who gave the curse was torn
To end that curse for all.

Chorus:
O love divine, O matchless grace-
That God should die for men!
With joyful grief I lift my praise,
Abhorring all my sin,
Adoring only Him.

My Jesus, meek, was scorned by men,
By men in blasphemy.
“Father, forgive their senseless sin!”
He prayed, for them, for me.

My Jesus, kind, was torn by nails,
By nails of cruel men.
And to His cross, as grace prevailed,
God pinned my wretched sin.

My Jesus, pure, was crushed by God,
By God, in judgment just.
The Father grieved, yet turned His rod
On Christ, made sin for us.

My Jesus, strong, shall come to reign,

To reign in majesty.

The Lamb arose, and death is slain.

Lord, come in victory!
