Who Will Hear Us Then?

If we sin against man to man

A barrister will plead our case

But oh, if we sin against God

And scorn redemption’s saving grace

Then who will for our good entreat?

Or save us from Death’s judgement seat

If we, without care for God’s Word

That He preserves from age to age

So that by Him, man’s hearts are stirred

If we dare to ignore its page

This love-letter from God to us

How dare we die… without Jesus?

If we choose ignorance, what then?

If we reject the cross, blood-stained

And He who gave His Life thereon

So that Death’s hell could be contained

Oh, tell me, who will plead our cause

Or intercede, without Jesus?

 If someone sins against a man, God will mediate for him, but if someone sins against the LORD, who can intercede for him?” 1 Sam.2:25
