Eph 1:7, Col 1:22, Col 2:14, 2 Cor 5:18-19
THIS IS OUR STORY
Jesus died for you, for me
This our story
The Son of God, poured out for us
His love revealed in sacrifice
His blood, that freely reconciles
He has made a way for us, on the cross
He has made a way for us, in all He’s done
Jesus makes a way for us to come
He is our peace, he is our peace
Our sin our shame, are washed away
Our debt is paid, we are forgiven
