Atonement-How Can it Be?

49 days ago by Mallika Windle

We have some very talented worship leaders on staff here at Oasis Church. Recently Jimmy Purchase finished writing the Worship Song Atonement. He was inspired to write it from Ephesians 1. Jimmy says” The song is about the gospel that is given and preached in the scriptures, that even though I deserved death, Jesus showed me grace. Jesus gave his righteousness to me through his death and resurrection and through that I have God as the greatest gift.” This song is beautiful! Isn’t it great to have such awesome talent here within our church body? Here are the lyrics to the song.

Atonement

Atonement, how can it be?
Apart from grace I need to be set free
Atonement, how can it be?
That it speaks righteousness for me

The crown of thorns
Portray the King
Who came to die
the death of me

The crown of thorns
Portray the King
Who lived to die
the death of me

Hallelujah

Hallelujah

Hope in a life to come
Is hope in the Savior’s blood

Hope in the empty tomb
Is hope that he’ll come again, Jesus
