If Christ had not died
If Christ had not died then we would all be lost
and would all have to pay sins awful cost.
Each would stand before God's great judgement throne
naked and exposed and all on our own.
Then, 'The wages of sin's death, ' God will say
as multitudes come before Him that day.
No one to arbitrate, no one to plead
No sacrificial lamb to intercede.
And the full penalty of sin applied
because Christ walked away and had not died.
Jesus would stand alone at heaven's door
whilst Hell was so full and could hold no more.
But Mighty God could find no other way
the awful penalty of sin to pay.
So He sent His Only Belovèd Son
to redeem back a world by sin undone.
