by the sacrifice of Christ – v2

By the sacrifice of Christ
we are restored, we are healed;
we are brought back into relationship
with our Father God.

By the sacrifice of Christ
we are bathed, we are washed;
our sins are washed clean
in the blood of the Lamb.

By the sacrifice of Christ
we share in the victory;
Death has been defeat;
Where is your sting?

to thrive within the vine

a choice to abide
to thrive within the vine
to draw life from the water
the Spirit living within
to live within our Savior
the vine, alive, growing
bearing fruit through us

a choice to abide
to belong, in union
a choice to be part of
the living vine

a choice to abide

to connection with God

no middle men, no intercessors
no one needed between us and God
Christ, the second Adam,
restored our relationship
to connection with God
no veil, no special place
no middle men, no intercessors
all of us, through Christ,
can stand before God

the way has been made

Christ opened the door
the way has been made
back to the Father
to restored relationship
with our God

Adam cut the cord
defying God’s command
the connection severed
by the first we were lost
mired in our sin

Christ restored the cord
renewing the connection
bringing us from the outside
into the body, the vine,
back into the family of God
