PSALM 15

The Mighty Lord has Spoken Well

 

 

The mighty Lord has spoken well.

Among us, all, who dares to stand?

Is it our right with Him to dwell

When God reveals what he demands?

 

 

A blameless life we cannot live.

The only one God will accept

Is one who asks Him to forgive

And turns to Jesus with respect.

 

 

Do we tend to slander others?

Is gossip pleasant to our ears?

What love is shown to our brothers

When this is all our witness bears?

 

 

On our own merit we cannot come.

Heaven’s a gift that Jesus won.

All our good deeds must now succumb

To what our God has for us won.

 

 

God’s love alone can show the way;

To a cleansed life that we can live.

Christ Jesus took our sins away.

Because of Him God does forgive

The simple truth of this psalm is to show the way to heaven, and nothing we do is good or sufficient enough to open heaven’s door.  Christ is the way, the only way.  Yet, as followers of him we are shown how to live God’s way while here on earth.
