These Are My JOTtings, Part #2

Song: "Hope in Jesus"

Verse #1
Wondrous record, life in Christ
lives for me each day and night.
I was lost, adrift in sin,
but my spirit He did win.

Chorus
Hope, hope in Jesus.
Hope, hope in Jesus.
Hope, hope in Jesus
He rose to save us, all.

Verse #2
In the Garden, full of fruit,
one big sin, that looked so cute.
Eating then has changed us all.
God came looking with His call.

Chorus
Hope, hope in Jesus.
Hope, hope in Jesus.
Hope, hope in Jesus
He rose to save us, all.

Verse #3
Broken humans needed One,
who would save, the Living Son.
As a baby came to live,
on the cross His life to give.

Chorus
Hope, hope in Jesus.
Hope, hope in Jesus.
Hope, hope in Jesus
He rose to save us, all.

Verse #4
When they laid Him in a tomb
sin no more on Earth had room.
When He knocks on your heart's door,
let Him in forevermore.

Chorus
Hope, hope in Jesus.
Hope, hope in Jesus.
Hope, hope in Jesus
He rose to save us, all.

Verse #5
Others need Him just as we.
They need redemption, soul set free.
When their hearts with His will beat,
His great family they will meet.

Chorus
Hope, hope in Jesus.
Hope, hope in Jesus.
Hope, hope in Jesus
He rose to save us, all.

(This new song was written to be sung to the tune of "Jesus Loves Me.")
