Foundational to the gospel is the fact that every human is a sinner and is without an excuse before a holy God.
lyrics
LYRICS
The wrath of God is revealed against all men,
Who suppress the truth that they understand,
Like the truth that God has displayed for all to see
His eternal power and His deity.
Those made in the image divine,
They have forsaken the Maker; instead they glorify
What was made and exchange the truth for a lie:
That there is no God, but can God you deny?
No, every creature knows that God exists,
Though clenched fists insist they can resist
The coming Judgment when the verdict will be shown,
There’s no excuse, for God has made it known
To everyone, every person (both me and you),
That we will give account for the things we do
And think and say, for on that Day His justice will reign.
There is no one with an excuse
Who can stand before the Lord,
For there is no one good.
How can anyone be made right
Unless the Lord is on his side,
And in love he came to die?
“Then what of the Jews? Well, surely they’ll be excused.
Can the wrath of God fall on the privileged few?”
Yes, to all men, God will His justice wreak:
To the Jew first, and also to the Greek.
For all have sinned who have not kept the law,
No, not just the Jews, for all means all.
You see, the work of the Law is inscribed on the heart
Of all nations and tribes; no, your conscience won’t lie
That you know wrong from right.
You see the Jews have the Law more clearly than most,
The revelations of God are entrusted to those
Who Moses showed – but in the law can you boast?
Will it save you from Him whom your actions oppose?
Or do you suppose the Law will ever make you right?
It only shows you the sins you commit in your life,
So Jews, you’re no better off, you cannot hide.
There is no one with an excuse
Who can stand before the Lord,
For there is no one good.
How can anyone be made right
Unless the Lord is on his side,
And in love he came to die?
There is no one good,
There is no one whose righteousness impresses God;
For everyone has sinned
And fallen short of the glory of God,
The glory of God
There is no one with an excuse
Who can stand before the Lord,
For there is no one good.
How can anyone be made right
Unless the Lord is on his side,
And in love he came to die?
