Sacrifice

When Adam offered sacrifice,
God blessed him for his faith.
He taught him of a Savior who
Was full of truth and grace.

When Jesus offered sacrifice,
He conquered Adam’s Fall.
He gave his life to make his grace
Sufficient for us all.

Today, we offer sacrifice
Of contrite, broken hearts.
Remembering the Savior’s gift,
We vow to give our part.
