By His Stripes

By John Tamakloe


By His stripes 
I gained my freedom 
To live freely, 
I owe Nothing to Any

 

By His stripes 
My peace was obtained 
And secured, I’ll therefore 
Rest peacefully in Him

 

By  His stripes 
I can silence any 
Critic and proclaim 
My innocence!

 

By His stripes 
The price was paid
I owe no one any arrears 
Not even an Explanation!

 

By His stripes 
I stand perfect, clothed 
In His righteousness

Before Him who
Will judge all Men.

 

By His stripes 
I need no other 
Argument, it is enough 
That He suffered, bled 
And died for me!

 

Yes by His stripes 
I am healed, He took 
My place that I 
May take His 
Unworthy As I Am

 

By His stripes
He took my Sin
And my Sorrows 
He made them 
His very Own!

 

Because of His Stripes 
It would be 
My joy through 
The ages to sing 
Of His love for Me

 

What manner of love 
Is this, that I should 
Be called a Child 
And that is what I am!
Because of His Stripes

 

Isaiah 53
KJV
5+ But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.
