THIS IS LOVE, NOT THAT WE LOVED HIM
But that He first loved us.
Left behind glories of heaven;
Took on the shame of the cross.
But in the place where love was poured
Death could not hold our risen Lord.
On Christ our solid ground,
Our hope for life is found;
The joy of our salvation.
On Christ our solid ground,
Our hope for life is found.
There is no condemnation.
There is no condemnation.
This is peace, not as the world gives,
But the true peace of Christ.
You have claimed our hearts for heaven;
Living by faith, not by sight.
Strengthen our faith in You alone
Until we stand before Your throne.
