His Ambassador

His Ambassador

The Lord of all created me
As His Ambassador
To represent Him on this earth –
That’s what my life is for.

So I rebel when I refuse
And live my life my way.
This sin is treason and earns death
Laid up for judgment day.

But God is rich in grace and sent
His Son to die instead;
Christ took my death, gave me His life –
His blood for me was shed.

Oh wondrous grace! What matchless love!
My Maker ransomed me!
Again I’m His ambassador
As I was meant to be.
