getting justice in Jesus


Many seek the face of a ruler,
but it is from the Lord that a man gets justice.
Proverbs 29:26

Life is unfair
when people in power don’t care
they seek power for themselves
ignoring the human hell
sin makes among us
Oh, how we need Jesus!

We treat each other mean
with hearts so unclean
it’s a jungle of pain
seeking personal gain
the struggle destroys us
Oh, how we need Jesus!

Jesus suffered under Pilate
knowing what injustice meant
He was despised and hated
but accepted what was fated
He suffered and died for us
Oh, how we need Jesus!

Now Jesus reigns as King
and His praise we will sing
as we cry out for justice
finding relief only in Jesus
tears wiped away from us
Oh, how we need Jesus!
