Salvation Story

Tune: Lux Benigna

('Lead, kindly Light')

Ephesians 2 v.4-10

*********

God comes to save, He be rich in mercy

Shown to us free

In His great love wherewith He loved us, He

Saved us, so be

Even when we were dead in sins has He

Made us alive together with Christ, see

 

By grace we are saved, and He has us raised

His name be praised

Raised up and made us sit together there

With Christ we share

Seated in heavenly places in Christ

Jesus, His salvation does us suffice

 

For by grace you are saved through faith, in all

He does us call

It is not of ourselves, but it gift be

Of God, here see

Not of our own works, lest any should boast

The gospel message spreads from coast to coast

 

For we are God's workmanship, creation

From each nation

Created in Christ Jesus unto good

Works, as God would

Ordain and prepare that we should them do

So living in Christ, raised to life anew
