Gift of Faith

The Gift of Faith     
w/m - Bill, Karen, Shannon Itzel 5/30/18
The gift of faith I have received not of my will but God’s
And now, I am a child, an heir and no longer at odds
Lord, how could you pardon me who bore sin’s heavy load?
I give to You with every breath the worship You are owed

I am blessed for He was cursed
I’m made right, and He made sin
The wrath of God was in the cup
It pleased the Lord to crush Him

All we like sheep have gone astray and none seek after You
The Shepherd came to rescue those whom in Your love foreknew
The Savior came unto His own, His own did not receive
But in mercy, opened up the eyes of many to believe
​
Christ, You are the sovereign King, You save whom You will save
But I look upon the wretch I am and stand today amazed
