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

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
