The Advocate**2000


Lord, you have given us an advocate,
an intercessor in our weakened state,
that opens us to mercy and grace,
that we might see your Holy face.

We are subject to the wrongs of this world,
everyone the same as the one beside,
all left to wander by the wayside,
found by the grace of God as we cried.

Our sins covered by the blood of Christ,
His sacrifice has more than sufficed,
our judgement is already won,
by our God's most glorious son.

Thank you for being my voice that redeems,
pleading my case by your name esteemed,
for if my judgement were rendered true,
I would have had no hope of finding You.
                ****
1 John 2:1-2 " My little children, I am
writing these things to you so that you
may not sin and if anyone sins, we have
an Advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ
the righteous;  and He Himself is the
propitiation for our sins; and not for
ours only, but also for those of the whole
world."
