WHO CONQUERED WHOM?
Posted in Jesus Christ, poem, tagged WHO CONQUERED WHOM? on December 13, 2009| Leave a Comment »
It seemed Christ was conquered by death;
His blood flowed, He breathed His last breath.
But death was conquered by His cross.
God’s long plan did not suffer loss.
Christ “stole the march” on wicked stealth!

I have a song I love to sing,
Since I have been redeemed,
Of my Redeemer, Savior King,
Since I have been redeemed.
Refrain
Since I have been redeemed,
Since I have been redeemed,
I will glory in His Name,
Since I have been redeemed,
I will glory in the Savior’s Name.
I have a Christ Who satisfies
Since I have been redeemed,
To do His will my highest prize,
Since I have been redeemed.
I have a witness bright and clear,
Since I have been redeemed,
Dispelling every doubt and fear,
Since I have been redeemed.
I have a home prepared for me,
Since I have been redeemed,
Where I shall dwell eternally,
Since I have been redeemed.
I have a joy I can’t express,
Since I have been redeemed,
All through His blood and righteousness,
Since I have been redeemed.
