Weakened by the flesh – v2

The Law, man, weakened by the flesh
fallen, failing to measure up,
only by grace, by the risen Christ,
the judgement, the law of sin and death,
defeated, rejected, our debt was paid…
 
When Christ descended, when He rose from the grave,
our sin was paid forever, once, for all time,
we are no longer bound, slaves,
to sin and death, weakened by the flesh,
in Christ, our Savior, we have eternal life…
