No longer can we act the fool
Or play the devil’s clown
Seeking to be our Father’s tool
And gain life’s hallowed crown
We’d live to see our Saviour’s face
We’d learn and understand
Religion cannot earn a place
Within The Promised Land
By grace alone we’ll win The Keys
By God each victory’s won
When faithfully we bend our knees
To Christ His living Son
Our righteousness is Jesus Christ
Through Christ are souls reborn
When life in Him we’ve sacrificed
Towards the youngest dawn
Eternity of joyful peace
Magnificent supreme
Where glorious love will so increase
Beyond our wildest dream
Who but a fool would risk such loss?
Their backs to Jesus turn
Steeped in sin deny The Cross
Within hell’s flame to burn
Who but a fool would darkness crave?
Would Heaven’s Lamp deny
Refuse their precious soul to save
Through He who’s standing by
He’s here for you He’s here for me
He’s here for yours and mine
The living God will heal and free
Through Christ His Lamb divine Michael P. Johnson
