Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Jesus, You have set me free
You alone took away all sin and disgrace
When You gave Your life to ransom me
I am forgiven at the foot of the cross
I am accepted by the power of Your love
My every stain is washed away
Here I stand in the light of Your glory and grace
Where Heaven's love and justice meet
Now I live for the One who has called me by name
Who is risen and alive in me
I'm embraced at the foot of the cross
By the love and the mercies You have lavished on us
My every stain is washed away
I am forgiven

EL que llevó la cruz es nuestro Dios Padre que murió en la cruz para salvarnos a cada uno de nosotros.
Es Dios Padre que resucitó de entre los muertos y estuvo 40 días más en la tierra, enseñando sus Santas Leyes para que entremos a su Reino aquí en la tierra dejó consumada su salvación, y que ya no va ha regresar porque dejó terminada su obra. Y el de cuerpo, mente y espíritu, limpio podrá ver a Dios Padre y sentir al Espíritu Santo. Pero nadie creyó,

Te amamos a ti Dios PADRE y Espíritu Santo, porque eres nuestro único Dios, Padre, Madre, salvador, redentor, creador, legislador, Rey.
Profetas hasta Juan el bautista, este fue el último profeta en la tierra. Porque Dios Padre ya vino a la tierra a cumplir su promesa de salvación. , */*/

When you sin and you got shy and thought that God won't be able to forgive you, you are minimizing the forgiving power of God. His forgiveness is unlimited. He is always willing to forgive you. All He just wanted for you to do is to humble yourself before Him.

He already did forgive you at the cross 2 Cor 5:19-21
