Wrath Meets Love

A little insight into the dilemma God faced in redeeming man from his sin.

 

Woe unto you who I hold so dear

How I long to hold you and have you near

I yearn for you beloved one

But Divine justice must be done

For the soul that sins; it must die

My wrath it must be satisfied

So how do I save my beloved one?

The answer lies with Christ my Son

Who I’ll send to take sin on Himself

Redemption will cost all my wealth

To satiate my vengeful ire

And save man from eternal fire

My Son will do it willingly

He’ll bring my darling back to me

And become the object of my rage

So that man might once again engage

And fellowship with God above

In Jesus Christ where wrath meets love.
