We Are The People Of The Cross

I felt moved to write these few words after the beheading of 21 Christians by the terrorist group ISIS.

We are the people of the cross
We do not fear to count the cost
Our eye is single, fixed on Him
Who died to pay the price for sin. 

To live is Christ, to die is gain
By grace through faith we own His name
We suffer all indignities
And yet we love our enemies. 

We do not doubt the power of Christ
In Him we have eternal life
Yet you who kill, what do you gain?
Blood on your hands
Your guilt remains. 

We are free and with the LORD
You are slaves of sin and sword
Angels minister to our needs
The Son has set us free indeed.

We are the people of the cross
We rejoice to suffer loss
If that loss is all for Christ
Truly we “confound the wise!” 

“Vengeance is mine,” saith the LORD
Heed the warnings of His word
Repent, believe and follow Him
And Christ will heal you of your sin.

(Paul Jennings)
