Jesus: Mou Charis kai Soteria - ENC 1101 Poem

I am nothing!
I was born to just death,
and I lived to die.
My sins obscured my sight;
I was blinded from God.
I was evil to the core,
and nothing good lived in me.
I was condemned by my own sinfulness,
except by Jesus, my Grace and Salvation.

Let there be light!
From eternity past
my name was chosen.
He choose me not for worth,
or because I did good,
but by secrets of His will.
Before I ever drew breath
He elected me to life eternal.
This did Jesus, my Grace and Salvation.

The price of wrath
my Savior paid for me.
He died on a cross,
endured great suffering.
God's own blood shed for mine.
O glorious man is He!
Full atonement, can it be?
My each and every single sin was laid
upon Jesus, my Grace and Salvation.

Amazing grace,
irresistible grace
brought me to my Lord!
God's own Spirit pulled,
shredded my paper heart.
He is love, and showed me so
that I would become compelled
to throw myself into His mighty arms,
those of Jesus, my Grace and Salvation.

Eternity,
for then I am secure!
Jesus will make me
forever endure.
My Jesus will save me
and never let me be lost.
By grace, I'll persevere.
I'm justified and will be glorified
in Jesus, my Grace and Salvation.

O my Savior!
How I delight in You!
My soul aches for You,
my endless Pleasure.
You are my great Treasure
who satisfies me always.
You are better than food,
better than life, water, women, and wealth!
Praise Jesus, my Grace and Salvation!

Come to Jesus
if you are found hopeless.
Has He chosen you?
Atonement for sins
can be found in my Lord.
Resist not His boundless grace!
He'll save you forever!
Turn to the Lord and find rest for your soul
within Jesus, my Grace and Salvation.
