A Poem Of Our Rest In Christ

The Covenant of Peace
Our rest lost, we stood dismayed
Cursed and broken, ruined lives lay
Prophet, priest, and failed king
Adam, no longer in the land of Living

By your eternal Counsel
By your eternal will
You made a covenant of peace
By your death, death would cease

You came and our flesh took
Lived under law but sin forsook
You obeyed your Father's Word
Now exalted, You are Lord of lords

A bruised reed you did not break
Smoking flax you wouldn't forsake
You broke my chains and set me free
To live before you continually

Praise the Lord, O my soul
Praise the Lord!
Salvation earned, rest obtained
Your blood cleanses every stain.
