Clothed in His righteousness alone, Faultless to stand before the throne. Jesus, Thy blood and righteousness My beauty art my heavenly dress.
How Thou canst think so well of me, And be the God Thou art, Is darkness to my intellect, But sunshine to my heart.
“Who shall lay anything to the charge of God’s elect? It is God that justifies. Who is he that condemns? It is Christ that died, and furthermore is also risen, who is even now on the right hand of the throne of God who also makes intercession for us.” Romans 8:33-34
The terrors of law and of God With me can have nothing to do; My Savior’s obedience and blood Hide all my transgressions from view. My name from the palms of His hands, Eternity will not erase; Impressed on His heart it remains, In marks of indelible grace.
