We Are His

(By Rachel Joyce)

Accepted.

Pause for a few moments.

Let the word sink deeply

To your core:

Accepted.

In the Beloved,

The pure and holy Jesus,

We are as accepted

By God the Father

As He.

By grace

Through faith, with empty

Hands and shame-filled

Hearts, we came and found

Forgiveness.

And more.

Through His blood,

We are clean.

In His love, we are

Treasured.

We believe;

Lord, help our unbelief.

Let the wonder of Your

Love and grace

Transform us.

“To the praise of the glory of His grace, by which He made us accepted in the Beloved. In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of His grace which He made to abound toward us” (Eph 1:6-8).
