“Creator of Heaven and Earth, and the hero of our hearts, Jesus Christ. Oh, how He loves us! Come quickly, Lord Jesus! The Spirit and the Bride say, ‘Come.’
The “me” that you see
Is not what will be
I’m destined for glory
Because of that tree.
My body perfected,
My face full of light,
Dressed in His glory,
Oh, wonderful sight!
O heart, dark and fearful
Consider that tree
Its message its power
But don’t look at me!
For I shall be changed
When my soul leaves this earth
To join heaven’s family,
A glorious re-birth.
O, Look to the cross!
See your sins nailed up there.
Deprived of their power,
Deprived of their snare.
There you are pardoned,
Your sins thrown away.
Your enemies vanquished,
Disarmed, and dismayed!
My Lord, in his triumph,
His blood, and His name
Finished my faith
Despising the shame.
Enduring the cross
For sinners like me,
Surrounded by mockers
And hostility.
The voice of the wicked
Cried out for His pain,
Refused to be quiet
Until He was slain.
And when others scatter
Or hide in their fear
I pray now for courage
To ever stay near
The cross, for its power
Forever will be
Messiah who suffered
Obediently.
Jesus, my Savior,
I pledge allegiance to the cross . . .
My love and my friend,
I pledge my allegiance
To You to the end.
We'll join as one nation
In anticipation
With all of creation,
A glorious rebirth.
Descending that hour
Jerusalem's flower
Messiah in power
Will reign on the earth.
Though wars rage about me
Wherever I am
I will overcome
By the blood of the Lamb
And my testimony
Forever will be
That I am for Jesus
And HE is for ME.
