Salvation Belongs to the Lord

The sun shines,
And the wind blows;
These are mere signs 
Of the God who knows.

Humans are not alone
Though so small we are,
Through Scripture it is known 
That God is not far.

God did not leave us be
As if we are lost causes; 
The Christ descended to free
Those who are not flawless.

Yes, flawed we all are
To say the least;
But Christ met the bar
So His children could feast.

Men continue to strive
Men continue to fall; 
Only in Christ we will thrive
Only in Christ we walk tall.

Sin scarred us in the garden
We have felt its pangs ever since;
Christ, however, purchased our pardon
Now we are able to not wince.

Clothed in Christ’s righteousness
We are free from condemnation;
Sovereign grace we possess
Unworthy recipients of salvation.

Salvation belongs to the Lord
That is certain;
There is no better Word
Than Christ tearing the curtain.
