Free from Sin and Death
Samantha Samuel
Romans 8:2 - For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.
Man is filled with sin from the day of his birth
It started with Adam and his life on this earth
Those transgressions extended to the generations to come
With sin abounding and into temptations they succumb
Regardless of how hard he tried, no man could climb out
No matter how good or devout
Because of the sin embedded in his blood
Another sacrifice was required to rid him of the mud
Animals sufficed for minor transgressions
But more was needed to deal with man’s indiscretions
A sacrifice once and for all, God had in mind
His only Begotten Son to fulfill the plan He designed
Jesus Christ would take on our sin and our shame
The wrath of God upon Him, it came
And with that one act, our sins were wiped away
And not one ounce of blood did man have to pay
Now all that is required is for us to believe
On Christ as our Lord and for us to receive
Forgiveness from God above
And live surrounded in His love
Man has eternal life from the day he is born again
Because of Christ’s sacrifice, Amen!
