It’s impossible for bulls and goats
To take away our sin
Because of this, prophetic words
Were spoken as Christ came in:
“Sacrifices and offerings
You have wanted not,
Neither burnt nor sin offerings
(Even though they have a lot.)
But a body you’ve prepared for me
And your will I’ve come to do,
I’m written of in the scroll of the book
And I’m here to see it through.”
He offered His own body
A Holy sacrifice
He wasn’t just following the law
Or paying a required price
Some reduce it to equation
Settling a debt from way back when
But God could’ve simply destroyed creation
And started over again.
There is Love in His redemption
Fulfillment of all things
To abolish all need for offerings burnt
By prophets, priests or kings
He’s all three, and leads His people out
Where freedom has arrived
By His own blood, He sets us free
And we are sanctified.
