Full Membership

Because we are all failures
under the law
no one can boast
of their own worthiness

Christ alone
the bridge to the father
walking through him
we may see the face of God

He lived and died
humble, as a servant
telling the good news
that the prisoners would be free

The law removed
as a stumbling block
faith alone
redeems us from death

All who believe
following our savior
full membership for all
in the body of Christ
