His Righteousness Alone

Folder: 
The Word of God

I have no righteousness of my own but stand on faith in Christ alone,

Abraham's an example to all of us for he believed unto righteousness.

On my own, from God, I stand apart as I was born with a sinful heart,

But Jesus took upon the sin of us to cover us with His Righteousness.



God knew before man's fall that Christ would die for the sins of all,

Satan would strike Christ's heel but God followed with this appeal,

Christ would in turn crush his head and Satan will be eternally dead,

Sin's price of death is on my head but Jesus Christ died in my stead.



Though Jesus died He rose again for death could not hold Him friend,

Death may come to all my friend and apart from Christ it is your end.

If you accept His Righteousness in-lieu of death you'll be blessed,

Reject The Lord and your last breath will take you to eternal death.



Christ suffered death for a while so to God we could be reconciled,

From the grave Christ did rise and now He lives even though He died.

Christ bore our sins on the cross and for our sins He paid the cost.

In the grave He buried our sin so we could rise to new life with Him.



There's still hope you can be sure for Jesus is knocking at the door,

He's waiting for you to come in for the cross is your victory over sin.

For our sin Christ did atone and Salvation is in Him and Him alone,

The One knocking at the door can be your Righteousness forevermore.
