“Spread the corner of your garment over your handmaid; for you are a redeeming kinsman.” Ruth 3:9
How could it be,
my Kinsman Redeemer,
Holy Son of God;
That you left the splendors of heaven,
to lay down your life,
and call me your child?
How could it be,
that you left your
royal throne in heaven
and pierced through the
darkness of this cold world
and came in the form of a babe
on that night so long ago?
Eternal God who spoke
the world into being –
How could it be that
you stooped down to my level
with eyes of love and said,
“My child I love you,
and it was for you I died!”
How could it be most
precious Passover
Lamb of God,
that your blood was
spilled out to cover my sins,
redeeming and restoring me
back to fellowship with God?
How could it be that
death and hell
could not hold you,
that you would be raised,
ascend back to heaven,
sit down at your Father’s side
and live to make intercession for me?
And in my heart, this Truth whispers;
Love’s Full Redemption Price was paid in full
through the Grace that touched my life,
by my loving Kinsman Redeemer!
For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten son, that whosoever believes in Him will not perish but have everlasting life. John 3:16
