667. Above the clash of creeds

Author: Graham Kendrick

Above the clash of creeds,
the many voices
that call on so many names,
into these final days
our God has spoken
by sending his only Son.

There is no other way
by which we must be saved;
his name is Jesus,
the only Saviour;
no other sinless life,
no other sacrifice,
in all creation,
no other way.

2. Before we called he came
to earth from heaven,
our maker became a man;
when no one else could pay,
he bought our freedom,
exchanging his life for ours.

3. Beneath the cross of Christ
let earth fall silent
in awe of this mystery;
then let this song arise
and fill the nations:
hear him call, ‘Come to me.’
