Koine Music - Salvation Unto Us Has Come Lyrics

Salvation unto us has come
By God's free grace and favor
Good works cannot avert our doom
They help and save us never
Faith looks to Jesus christ alone
Who did for all the world atone
He is the one redeemer

What God does in his law demand
And none to him can render
Brings wrath and woe on ev'ry hand
For man, the vile offender
Our flesh has not those pure desires
The spirit of the law requires
And lost is our condition

It is a false, misleading dream
That God his law has given
That sinners can themselves redeem
And by their works gain heaven
The law is but a mirror bright
To bring the inbred sin to light
That lurks within our nature

Yet as the law must be fulfilled
Or we must die despairing
Christ came and has God's anger stilled
Our human nature sharing
He has for us the law obeyed
And thus the father's vengeance stayed
Which over us impended

Since christ has full atonement made
And brought to us salvation
Each christian therefore may be glad
And build on this foundation
Your grace alone, dear lord, I plead
Your death is now my life indeed
For you have paid my ransom

All blessing, honor, thanks, and praise
To father, son, and spirit
The God who saved us by his grace
All glory to his merit!
O triune God in heav'n above
You have revealed your saving love
Your blessed name be hallowed!
