"That's My King!" Who's Righteous Beyond Imagination Yet Took Our Condemnation And Became The LORD's Abomination That We Might Enjoy Justification!

Those who pervert justice our God hates; When the wicked go free His wrath awaits; Innocents condemned in evil straits; Our God will help – justice creates; For Him the truth and good dictates; Since He's the Truth and Good in greats!  All wrongs He'll right with no debates; In Christ He punished all He hates; Justice to Mercy the cross translates; If you'll trust the Son Who waits; Who died and rose as God's Word states; He'll save you from all sinful weights; And grant you joy that never abates!
God wicked sinners justified; How is this right, you analyzed?  His righteous Son He glorified; And made Him sin Who's sanctified; The perfect Son was crucified; And now God's wrath is pacified; His love and mercy amplified; He's like no other classified; Nothing in Him needs modified; He's risen – it's all ratified; All our sins are nullified; Our joys in Him are multiplied; So be forever satisfied!

That's my King!  Do you know Him?!

God does what's right through imputation; Vile sins made Christ's for our salvation; Though He sinned not – crushed all temptation; Had not one lust or thought violation; God made Him sin and desecration; Took on Himself all our damnation; On that cross – our hope's foundation; He was made abomination; Suffered all our condemnation; Bled and died for every nation; He took God's wrath without sedation; Our substitute in full summation; Showed God just in demonstration; And now we praise in admiration; For He rose in confirmation; Of God's plan for vindication; Now by God's work of imputation; You're made right by declaration; If you trust in desperation; And turn from sin in reformation; God says: "You're right!" in jubilation; Christ's righteousness – your consolation; It covers like safe habitation; Now you enjoy justification; Forever praise in celebration; The King Who took your condemnation!

That's my King!  That's my King!
