A GOSPEL OF GRACE

I want to tell you a story

A story so dear to me

The story of our Lord Jesus Christ

Who left his heavenly throne

Amidst His magnanimity and supremacy

To bring to us the gospel of love

The gospel of grace, the gospel of salvation

Man's heart was filled with hatred and greed and lust

Often disposing his brothers off his rights and privileges

All for selfish interest, selfish gains, selfish reasons

See cruelty ruled the face of the earth

With total recklessness and ceaseless abandonment

Various degrees of violence and immoralities were the order of the day
