The Hour We Went Astray
The day we sinned against Him
And broke God’s law and heart,
He made a lasting promise
To save us from the start.
His love is so abundant,
His grace so deep and wide,
He promised us a Savior
The day we fell and died.
As God pronounced sin’s curses
He spoke a blessing too
Which shows His loving purpose
To rescue me and you.
The tempter would be vanquished
By Christ, the woman’s Seed,
And Adam’s sons and daughters
From sin and Satan freed.
Our curse was turned to blessing,
And night was turned to day,
As grace much more abounded
The hour we went astray.
Christina Joy Hommes
