Deception
Whatever happened to
wickedness? whatever happened to sin?
We excuse ourselves and
rationalize the desperate evil within
At sin we blink and we come
to think that there's something good deep inside
But our hearts are wild and need to be reconciled
With the Holiness this world
has denied.
He is the work that leads to
righteousness, not a work that makes us right in our own eyes
He finished the work at
Calvary, but before it works for you, you must realize
God made him to be sin for
us, Him who knew no sin
That we might become the
righteousness of God in Him...
There are men who deny they
are debtors but denial doesnt mean the debt's gone
There are men who bask in
self righteousness thinking they are right but they are dead wrong
When we reward our own self
effort we are our enemy not a friend
There is one who justifies
the wicked- there is one who paid the debt for sin
He is the work that leads to
righteousness, not a work that makes us right in our own eyes
He finished the work at
Calvary, but before it works for you, you must realize
God made him to be sin for
us, Him who knew no sin
That we might become the
righteousness of God in Him...
