The Special of the Day… From the Orange Moon Cafe…
"So Great the Cost"
"He hath made Him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in Him."
(II Corinthians 5:21)
"Surely He hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem Him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted."
(Isaiah 53:4)
So much given, so great the cost,
so terrible the sorrow, so vast the loss.
When on that day at Calvary,
the Father smote His Son,
when for us He forsook Him
to bleed and die alone…
So much given, so great the cost.
So much given, so much forgiven.
So great the mercy shining in His face
when on that day we first believed,
and in this day as we receive
the grace to live in faithfulness,
the beauty of His holiness…
So much given, so great the cost.
So much given, of glorious supply,
grace that cost Him all, His holy, precious life.
For on that day when we believed,
His Spirit entered in.
And in this day as we believe,
He lives in us, we live through Him…
So much given, so great the cost.
"He that spared not His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all, how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things."
(Romans 8:32)
