For All the Merits and Sufferings of the Son of Your Love
In this, the love of God was made manifest among us, that God sent his only son into the world so that we might live through him. In this is love, not that we have loved God, but that he loved us and sent his son to be the propitiation for our sins. 1 John 4:9-10.
Ryan Bush:Behold, Lord, though my failings are many, I come at your call, and I come weary and heavy laden with the burden of my sins. Be it unto me according to your word. Oh, you who are faithful and just, forgive me my sins and cleanse me from all unrighteousness. O heavenly Father, for the sake of your truth and promise and for all the merits and sufferings of the Son of your love in whom you are well pleased, pardon all my sins and failings and receive me into your favor. Thank you for easing my burden so that I may rest in you. For you have said unto my soul, be of good cheer, your sins are forgiven. Amen.
Ryan Bush:I will greatly rejoice in the Lord. My soul shall exalt in my God. For he has clothed me with the garments of salvation. He has covered me with the robe of righteousness. As a bridegroom decks himself like a priest with a beautiful headdress, and as a bride adorns herself with her jewels. For as the earth brings forth its sprouts, and as a garden causes what is sown in it to sprout up, so the Lord God will cause righteousness and praise to sprout up before all the nations. Isaiah 61:10-11.
