In some sense the statement true
Christ had to die
to set us free
unable by ourselves
to change from the world
the path of the pit
of the way to hell
needing his grace
to rise again
to live in glory
at the ends of our days
Christ had to die
that we may live

“It wasn’t nails, but love, that held Jesus to the Cross.
He nailed down our salvation for eternity.”
