He saw me in my struggle, dead, in my blood
He said to me, "Live", it was the time of His love.
He clothed me in robes, royal, spreading his wings
He washed me and cleansed me, redemption to bring.
For He called me and chose me, adopted, a son
Saved through the faith Jesus Christ for me won.
I cast down my crowns, these, no longer my gain
But grace upon grace as I trust in the Name
In the name of Christ Jesus, no longer my own
Purchased, salvation, His blood has atoned
For all of my sin, it was nothing I earned
But the gift of my Father through His sent, living Word.
Joy unspeakable I know for He's my living hope
through the resurrection of Jesus, in Him alone I boast.
My inheritance is incorruptible, it will not fade away
It is reserved for me in Heaven, I am kept until that Day.
I once was lost but now I'm found
Amazing grace, how sweet the sound
And so again I lift my praise
My songs to rise unto the Name
To Him who gave His life, to save
To dwell with Him for all my days.
Ezekiel 16:6-14 - “And
when I passed by you and saw you struggling in your own blood, I said
to you in your blood, ‘Live!’ Yes, I said to you in your blood,
‘Live!’ I
made you thrive like a plant in the field; and you grew, matured, and
became very beautiful. Your breasts were formed, your hair grew, but
you were naked and bare. “When
I passed by you again and looked upon you, indeed your time was the
time of love; so I spread My wing over you and covered your nakedness.
Yes, I swore an oath to you and entered into a covenant with you, and
you became Mine,” says the Lord God. “Then I washed you in water; yes, I thoroughly washed off your blood, and I anointed you with oil. I
clothed you in embroidered cloth and gave you sandals of badger skin; I
clothed you with fine linen and covered you with silk. I adorned you with ornaments, put bracelets on your wrists, and a chain on your neck. And I put a jewel in your nose, earrings in your ears, and a beautiful crown on your head. Thus
you were adorned with gold and silver, and your clothing was of fine
linen, silk, and embroidered cloth. You ate pastry of fine flour,
honey, and oil. You were exceedingly beautiful, and succeeded to
royalty. Your
fame went out among the nations because of your beauty, for it was
perfect through My splendor which I had bestowed on you,” says the Lord God.I once was lost but now I'm found
Amazing grace, how sweet the sound
And so again I lift my praise
My songs to rise unto the Name
To Him who gave His life, to save
To dwell with Him for all my days.
Ephesians 1:4-6 - He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before Him in love, having predestined us to adoption as sons by Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the good pleasure of His will, to the praise of the glory of His grace, by which He made us accepted in the Beloved.
Philippians 3:3-9 - For we are the circumcision, who worship God in the Spirit, rejoice in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in the flesh, though I also might have confidence in the flesh. If anyone else thinks he may have confidence in the flesh, I more so: circumcised the eighth day, of the stock of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, a Hebrew of the Hebrews; concerning the law, a Pharisee; concerning zeal, persecuting the church; concerning the righteousness which is in the law, blameless. But what things were gain to me, these I have counted loss for Christ. Yet indeed I also count all things loss for the excellence of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord, for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and count them as rubbish, that I may gain Christ and be found in Him, not having my own righteousness, which is from the law, but that which is through faith in Christ, the righteousness which is from God by faith.
Ephesians 2:8-9 - For it’s by God’s grace that you have been saved. You receive it through faith. It was not our plan or our effort. It is God’s gift, pure and simple. You didn’t earn it, not one of us did, so don’t go around bragging that you must have done something amazing.
1 Peter 1:3-5 - Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to His abundant mercy has begotten us again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, to an inheritance incorruptible and undefiled and that does not fade away, reserved in heaven for you, who are kept by the power of God through faith for salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.
