NOT A CHEAP GRACE
BY MICHELLE SECORD
MAY 23, 2002
THE GRACE OF THE LORD IS NOT A CHEAP GRACE,
JUST REMEMBER JESUS ON THE CROSS
AND THE AGONY UPON HIS FACE!
IT CAME AT GREAT COST AND
WE ARE CALLED TO ENTER
THROUGH THE CROSS!
WE ARE CALLED TO LEAVE IT ALL AND FOLLOW HIM!
GRACE IS NOT AT ALL A LICENSE TO SIN!
WE TREAD UPON HIS PRECIOUS BLOOD,
WHILE WE WILLINGLY STAY IN THE MIRE AND THE MUD.
HIS GLORIOUS NAME IS TRAMPLED AND MADE FUN OF,
AND WE STAND GUILTY, HOLDING THE BOXER’S GLOVE!
DARE WE TREAT THE LORD WITH SUCH DISDAIN?
DARE WE CAUSE BLASPHEMY
TO FALL UPON THAT HOLY NAME???
THE GRACE THAT JESUS BOUGHT WAS VIOLENT;
SO HIS DEATH UPON THAT CROSS.
FOR HIS NAME WE MUST NOT BE SILENT,
WE MUST LIVE FOR HIM TOTALLY
AND ALLOW HIM TO REMOVE ALL DROSS!
DO NOT LOVE THE WORLD
OR LIVE LIKE THOSE WHO ARE IN IT!
WE ARE CALLED TO BE HOLY AS HE IS!
COME OUT, COME OUT AND BE SEPARATE.
