I make no excuses,
no false pretense
I am just a sinner
I have no defense.
Born of rebellion,
conceived in sin
envy and spite
were my closest kin.
Dead in trespasses,
deceitful to the core
greed and pride oozed
out of every pore.
Disobedient to God,
just like in Eve’s story
wickedness and evil
stole all of His glory.
I make no excuses,
a sinner I am . . .
but, I’ve been saved by
the blood of the Lamb!
~~~~~~~~~
The next day John seeth
Jesus coming unto him,
and saith,
Behold the Lamb of God,
which taketh
away the sin of the world.
1 Peter 1:19
King James Version
“But with the precious
blood of Christ,
as of a lamb without blemish
and without spot:
