Not By Our Works


The work on the cross, by Christ, is how man enters eternal life,
His work was finished, He had said, as Christ died in our stead,
With none required on our part, before from the earth we depart,
As the work Christ did on Calvary, provides for us, life eternally.
 
Our only part is done by faith, as we accept God’s gift of grace,
Sinfully depraved and undone, God sent, for man His Only Son,
Being eternally lost and depraved, only by Grace, we are saved,
For only He could pay that price, by sending a Perfect Sacrifice.
 
The price for salvation was paid, as man’s sin on Christ was laid,
A price that no man could pay, so, Christ became The Only Way,
For every man, from every nation, to be saved, by His Salvation,
God’s Salvation, that all receive, when by faith they truly believe.
 
When we’re saved we fellowship, to praise God through worship,
We worship not to gain favor, but, because we know The Savior,
Receiving Christ, who died for us, we receive His Righteousness.
Righteousness gained through Him, not of works tainted with sin.
 
Works on our part are not required, or by Christ are they desired,
As God’s desire is that we embrace, His Son, received by Grace,
Then after accepting Jesus Christ, live for Him in newness of life,
For our works do not save us, as that was done by Christ Jesus.

louis gander,  

"our only part is done by faith..." is a VERY difficult part in this up-side-down world. Take a look at all the verses that speak of perseverance, etc. Many will say, "Lord, Lord" but HE will not know them. No, works do not save us - but our works sure PROVE who our true 'god' is - sports? writing? politics? cars? movies???

Bob Gotti,  

Our Salvation In Christ is through faith alone, works can't accomplish what Christ finished on the Cross for us. However, the respond to the point that you make Louis, works (after we are saved) are proof that we are saved by Christ, as His Spirit works through us, doing what He has prepared in advance for us (as believers, now in The Body of Christ - His True and Only Church), as saved believers in Christ, to serve God, not to be saved.
