Not Good Enough

No one friend, is good enough, as sinful men raised from dust,
To reach God’s Eternal Throne, through his own merit, all alone.
The issues are sin and the Law, issues to God that aren’t small,
Sin we see sometimes as fun, while overlooking that other one.

All our own righteousness, aimed at pleasing God is just amiss,
Our aim just misses the mark, at hitting His light out of our dark.
All righteousness in God’s light, is simply filthiness in His sight,
Only masking who we truly are, missing His perfect mark by far.

The games that we play with sin, points to darkness deep within,
Deep inside every human heart, of which, God will have no part.
For it’s that sin separating man, from The Creator’s original plan,
And nothing that we do for Him, removes from our heart the sin.

There’s no sin God can embrace, which is why He sent us Grace,
Sent in the person of His Son, to become a bridge for everyone,
This, when to the Cross of Calvary, He was sent for you and me,
The Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, to be for all, a Bridge of Life.

Doing what no one else could do, becoming sin for me and you,
And being delivered to a cross, not for Himself, but sinners lost,
So He could pay an eternal price, by becoming for all a sacrifice,
Providing for man the Only Door, to a life with God forevermore.
