This song is so very beautiful; it is the Gospel in a nutshell--the birth, purpose, and ministry of our Redeemer magnifying the long-ago and predetermined outcome of God the I AM's plan of salvation!
One cannot listen to it without being overwhelmed by the grandeur and excellency of the mercy, and love and grace of Christ Jesus as He was, is, and is to be eternally. Nor can the outpouring of the love of our Father God I AM for us through His Son be missed; for in such love we are brought face-to-face with our redemption through the triumph of the finished work of the Lord Christ Jesus our Lord, Master, and Messiah--the Sovereign King who reigns. He, our Redeemer-Kinsman--fully God and fully man!
The words can soothe our spirits with the assurance that the plan of salvation of God the Father and Christ Jesus the Son was and will be accomplished; it can bring encouragement to our oftentimes weary hearts as we journey on this earth; and it can swaddle us in the comfort that is ours as the Lord's elect. For the redeemed of Christ Jesus understand Scripture--and in that is seated the hope that urges us onward; and we pick up our crosses daily to follow our beloved Saviour!
The message of this song can be a light for those who do not know our Saviour; and therein, be a means of moving their spirits to yearn to hear more of the Gospel of Salvation and meet the willingness of our sovereign Saviour to save!
There is so much more to be said, but the message of this song speaks for itself; and I am overwhelmed!
