The Grip of God
There is a love that reaches down to us
from the throne of God Most High,
that covers all our sinful deeds,
so we don't have to die.
Our sins are covered by His very blood
that He shed on Calvary,
and those who will believe His Word,
eternal life receive.
His promises are statements
The Expression of what's true,
they illustrate His Holiness
and His love for me and you.
God says, 'Those who have received Me
are firm within love's grip,
I cannot let you go,
even when you slip.
For neither death, nor life,
nor angels dark or light,
can separate you from My love,
regardless of the fight.'
God grips us in the Promise,
by what He gave to make us one,
by His love that truly is our life,
by the faith of God the Son.
J. Christopher White
'For I am persuaded that neither death,
nor life, nor angels,nor principalities, nor things present, nor things
to come,nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor any other created
thing,shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in
Christ Jesus our Lord.' Romans 8:38-39
'I have been crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I
who live,but Christ lives in me; and the life that I now live in
theflesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, Who loved me,and gave
Himself up for me.'
Galatians 2:20
