Though your Sins be as Scarlet

“Come now, and let us reason together, saith the LORD:
thou your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow;
though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.”
Isaiah 1:18

In dark despair no more to roam
There is mercy and hope for Jesus’ blood hath atoned

Pleading the Spirit beckons calling unto thee
Leading ever onward, God’s glorious light to see

Do not withdraw O’ soul in need
Do not give heed to the demon’s seed

In faith plead the blood, then take up thy cross
Cling tightly to Christ Jesus, no more to be lost

For His love for thee everlasting endures
His grace is free and forgiveness is yours.

“Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession. For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin. Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.” Hebrews 4:14-16
