The Greatest Love

GOD did not cause our hopeless state,
Adam’s sin sealed everyone's fate.
Yet love refused to never sway,
Our loving Father had a way.

One perfect man had thrown it all,
So death passed down to great and small.
The wage of sin is death, we learned,
Yet GOD'S own justice must be firmed. 

Through Jesus Christ, GOD'S love was shown,
His perfect life for ours alone.
Our hearts give thanks for love so true,
To bring back hope for me and you.

No flawed human could pay that price,
Our lives were stained by sin’s device.
No bull or goat could clear the debt,
Those signs foretold Christ’s payment yet.

A life for life the Law proclaimed,
A perfect man for guilt and shame.
A corresponding price required,
An equal to the one retired.

Through Jesus Christ, GOD'S love was shown,
His perfect life for ours alone.
Our hearts give thanks for love so true,
To bring back hope for me and you.

GOD did give his dearest Son,
His firstborn, loved above each one.
He left the heavens’ glory bright,
To live on earth and prove GOD right.

Like Adam, born sin-free, complete,
Yet Jesus kept his faith discrete.
Through every test he stayed the same,
He proved GOD'S rule is just, not blame.

Through Jesus Christ, GOD'S love was shown,
His perfect life for ours alone.
Our hearts give thanks for love so true,
To bring back hope for me and you.

He gave his life, for equal price,
His blood poured out in sacrifice.
One perfect man for Adam’s fall,
In order to exchange for all.

Precious blood, accepted as worth,
Raised above, from the sleep of earth.
The gift of life, greatest love shown,
He stood before his Father’s throne.

Through Jesus Christ, GOD'S love was shown,
His perfect life for ours alone.
Our hearts give thanks for love so true,
To bring back hope for me and you.

One perfect man lost all we had,
One perfect man made all turn bad.
GOD gave the gift beyond compare,
His only Son, so pure and fair.

Now justice stands and mercy flows,
Through Christ the hope of life still grows.
If we believe, then we obey,
His Word will guide us every day.

Through Jesus Christ, GOD'S love was shown,
His perfect life for ours alone.
Our hearts give thanks for love so true,
To bring back hope for me and you.
Through Jesus Christ, GOD'S love was shown,
His perfect life for ours alone.
Our hearts give thanks for love so true,
To bring back hope for me and you.
Our hearts give thanks for love so true,
To bring back hope for me and you.
