Christ Makes Death Powerless Poem by Gary James Smith

CHRIST MAKES DEATH POWERLESS

Christ makes death powerless
To rob us of our joy
For the invisible Holy Spirit
Is our spirit's heavenly alloy
Praise God for those precious promises
Which are still yea and amen!
For we who believed on Jesus Christ
And have become born again

Don't just think your earthly birth
Will get you into heaven
Jesus says you must be born again
Then you'll know you're truly living
He who spoke this world into being
And has made us human beings
Knows far better than we ever could
Just what eternity means

Sin is stamped all over us
Proof? ...our flesh is turned to dust
Because of one man's disobedience
It falls to the lot of us
But praise God for redemption's song
The Song of the Soul set free
For by the obedience of the Lord Jesus Christ
Faith has won the victory!

Don't be captivated by the fear of death
For there's a way of escape
Praise God Christ arose from the dead
Praise God He's conquered the grave
His Holy Spirit my constant Companion
From the triune God no less
He also had a part in raising Christ
To make death powerless!

Hallelujah, what a Saviour!
