4: 17 They named him Obed. He was the father of Jesse, the father of David.

In evil long I took delight, Unawed by shame or fear, Till a new object struck my sight, And stopped my wild career.

I saw One hanging on a tree, In agonies and blood, Who fixed His languid eyes on me, As near His cross I stood.

Sure, never till my latest breath, Can I forget that look; It seemed to charge me with His death, Though not a word He spoke.

My conscience felt and owned the guilt, And plunged me in despair, I saw my sins His blood had spilt, And helped to nail Him there.

Alas, I knew not what I did, But now my tears are vain; Where shall my trembling soul be hid? For I the Lord have slain.

A second look He gave, which said, “I freely all forgive; This blood is for thy ransom paid; I die that thou mayst live. ”

Thus, while His death my sin displays In all its blackest hue, Such is the mystery of grace, It seals my pardon too.

With pleasing grief and mournful joy, My spirit is now filled; That I should such a life destroy, Yet live by him I killed.

And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose. ROMANS 8: 28

What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? He who did not spare his own Son but gave him up for us all, how will he not also with him graciously give us all things? ROMANS 8: 31 -32

For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord. ROMANS 8: 38 -39
