Love Letters 4 Jesus

Covenant of Redemption

 

I long to be remembered

To be thought of through the hours

I long for someone loving me

Who sends me gifts and flowers

 

Now here I am reminded

That before all time began

In the depths of all eternity

My rescue You had planned

 

Your love for me was on Your mind

Before the sun did shine

My name was written on Your hand

Before You measured time

 

To secure my liberation

A covenant of three

Agreed upon a battle plan

To set the captives free

 

The plan would bring humility

To One who was divine

You set aside Your deity

To do what God assigned

 

Enduring pain and sadness

That I cannot conceive

You gave Your life a ransom

So I might now believe

 

Not only did You pay my price

But gifts You gave to me

The Spirit carries battle plans

So Your direction I might see

 

And in His silent whisper

Encouraging my heart

This holy voice reminds me

How the covenant did start

 

Because I was remembered

Was thought of before time

A holy God was loving me

Though I was bound to crime

 

Your love was so deliberate

Intent to set me free

That each One of the Trinity

Made a covenant for me.
