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
