“MY JESUS FAIR”
Words: Chris Anderson
Music: Greg Habegger
Verse 1:
My Jesus, fair, was pierced by thorns
By thorns grown from the fall.
Thus He who gave the curse was torn
To end that curse for all.
Verse 2:
My Jesus, meek, was scorned by men
By men in blasphemy.
"Father, forgive their senseless sin!"
He prayed, for them, for me.
Verse 3:
My Jesus, kind, was torn by nails,
By nails of cruel men
And to His cross, as grace prevailed,
God pinned my wretched sin.
Verse 4:
My Jesus, pure, was crushed by God
By God, in judgment just.
The Father grieved, yet turned His rod
On Christ, made sin for us.
Verse 5:
My Jesus, strong, shall come to reign
To reign in majesty.
The Lamb arose, and death is slain.
Lord, come in victory!
Chorus:
O love divine, O matchless grace
That God should die for men!
With joyful grief I lift my praise
Abhorring all my sin, adoring only Him.

Pray for us, that God may open to us a door for the Word,
to declare the mystery of Christ.” (Col. 4:3)
