In Thorns

Written by: Jon Roberts

Lyrics

In thorns, our King victorious crowned

Love is tortured, peace is found

In scars, each rebel’s name engraved

On the heart of the Saviour

Death roars, yet Mercy wins the day

“It is Finished” his refrain

Veil torn, the Father stands with arms wide


Now we cease from feeble toil

Knowing rest in Jesus’ blood


We will cling tightly to the Risen King

Delighting in His liberty

We cry Hallelujah!

We will sing glory to the Reigning King

In awe we stand in victory

We cry Hallelujah!


What love! The foe becomes a son

Grace untethered, chains undone

What hope! Eternity to reign

An inherited Kingdom

Though weak, the ransomed persevere

Til the face of Christ appears

Our strength, the Spirit brings assurance


Now we lay our strivings down

At the cross where freedom’s found
