Father God,
the creator of all that exists, provides
a way.
With many
roads touted, the Father’s way is easily
missed
Any old road
will get you there; many try to say.
With a narrow
path to the Father’s way, few find the
way.
Lost in
blindness, multitudes turn to the
devil's highway.
The Father’s
heart is to draw all to Jesus, the only
way in sight.
Discovering
the Father’s way, they come, humble and
contrite.
Clinging to
His word, pride destroyed, the path
becomes bright.
The proud,
blinded by their own desires, He sees
from a distance.
Blinded by
self-will, they cannot be drawn,
standing in resistance.
As a mediator
between God and man, came Jesus, man and
God.
Coming as God
in the flesh, a ransom for our sin, He
gives His life.
Without sin,
becoming sin, we become righteous by His
blood.
At the cross
with His shed blood, a way to the Father
is cleared.
Making
atonement for sin, Jesus, the perfect
Lamb is slaughtered.
As life of
the flesh is in the blood, atonement had
to be blood.
As Scripture
says, “There’s no remission without
bloodshed.”
The perfect
sacrifice completed, the Father’s way
was paved.
Unless the
sacrifice is received and believed, all
will be misled.
For the way
paved, the Father gave His Son for all
to be saved.
.
To all who
come, the way is made available through
His Son.
Jesus, the
only door to the Father’s home,
available to everyone.
Coming to
Jesus, all who follow embrace His cross,
wholeheartedly.
Becoming the
author salvation, all who obey pass by
the sentry.
Cleansed from
all guilt and condemnation, the way
clears for entry.
