Hope

How dark and vast would be the rift

Twixt Holy God and man

But for His saving grace: Love’s gift

Sin’s void of doom to span

How immeasurable, our debt

How utter death’s last loss

But for the oath in His last breath

And victory through the cross

How base would be this toil and strife

Where evil’s ploys deceive

But for the everlasting life

To all who will believe

Amazing Grace

Are there any words really, to capture the wonder of His love?

For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son

that whosoever believes in him will not perish, but have eternal life. John 3:16
