Tune: St Peter (Reinagle)
('How sweet the name of Jesus sounds')
Colossians 1 v.15-23 part
********
Christ He the head, He over all
Come to Him, on Him call
He lives, He reigns, He rules supreme
Howe'er outward things seem
He makes peace through blood of His cross
Suffered, redeemed our loss
Whether things in heaven, earth be
He reconciles all, see
Your mind did cause you from Christ go
Alienated, so
And enemies of Him you were
You did not to Him stir
Yet even though this was your state
Christ reconciled you, great
Was His working, His plan for you
His mercies not a few
For through His life given for you
You are a creature new
Made holy in His sight, made pure
His Spirit in you sure
And unblameable you are made
For Christ the price He paid
And unreproveable you be
From accusations free
In Christ you are, continue in
The faith, not partake sin
Be grounded, settled, the gospel
Hope believe still, all tell
Thanks, praises to Christ be outpoured
He e'er our Saviour, Lord
He saves, redeems, heals, reconciles
Worship Him often whiles

Unblameable, unreproveable, from accusations free... through Christ. His dealing with our sins, guilt (true or false guilt); our 'what if's; 'if only I had...'; regrets; our punishing ourselves; etc.
CHRIST YOU KNOW IT AIN'T EASY
You said that 4 times, I said, You said that 4.....!
How many times?
I said: How many times?
