why we need Jesus

proof in the ancient text
the test for communion
relationship cut off
by the sin of man
only the righteous may enter in
into God’s presence
only those who are innocent
who do what is right
only they may enter in
into Your Holy Tent

all else on the outside
lost in the world
all else needing Jesus
to heal our brokenness
none of us righteous
none passing this test
none of us innocent
perfect before God
this is why we need Jesus
his sacrifice only
to redeem us to life
