Tune: Darwall’s 148th
(“Rejoice, the Lord Is King” – LW Hymn # 179)
Based on Romans 3:21-28
A righteousness from God,
His people have been shown,
Apart from Law, and its dread rod,
He has made known,
That all who trust, in Him who died,
By His free grace are Justified.
A righteousness through faith,
Though tainted by the fall,
In Jesus Christ, God saves,
Redeeming one and all,
For all who trust, in Him who died,
By His free grace are Justified.
Now boasting we exclude,
No merit can we claim,
Instead we must conclude,
We’re saved in Jesus’ name,
So let us trust, in Him who died,
And by His grace be Justified.
