633 God’s Judgment Is Love
Verse 1
What witness does man bear in the end?
They testify that God is righteous,
He is wrath, chastisement and judgment.
Man testifies to God’s righteousness.
Verse 2
God uses judgment to make man perfect.
He has been loving and saving man.
But how much is contained in His love?
Judgment, majesty, curses and wrath.
Pre-chorus
He curses you, so you may love Him,
and know the essence of flesh.
He chastises you to make you wake up
and know your unworthiness.
Chorus
So God’s judgment, majesty and curse,
the righteousness He shows in you,
all He does is to perfect you.
This is the love of God found in you.
Verse 3
Though God may have cursed man in the past,
they were not cast to the endless pit,
nor put to death, their faith was refined.
God’s purpose was to make them perfect.
Verse 4
The essence of flesh is Satan.
When God said this, He was right indeed.
And yet the deeds carried out by God
are not done as His words have said.
Pre-chorus
He curses you, so you may love Him,
and know the essence of flesh.
He chastises you to make you wake up
and know your unworthiness.
Chorus
So God’s judgment, majesty and curse,
the righteousness He shows in you,
all He does is to perfect you.
This is the love of God found in you.
So God’s judgment, majesty and curse,
the righteousness He shows in you,
all He does is to perfect you.
This is the love of God found in you.
This is the love of God found in you.
