What do you get for the God who has everything? What can we ever give Him that didn't first come from His hand? Well, the one thing we can give Him that He won't force is our love and devotion. And all we have to bring Him, even the righteous things we think we've done on our own, are no more than filthy rags in His sight. (Isaiah 64:6) As Jonathan Edwards said, the only thing we bring to our salvation is the sin that made it necessary. And when we give those sins over to Him, His grace forgives us through faith in Christ's death and Resurrection and removes our sins as far as the east is from the west. We're saved by grace and not by works. (Our good works done after we're saved demonstrate our faith though.) God took care of all our sin, man! Praise The Lord for His gift!

(James 1:17, 1 Chronicles 29:14, 2 Corinthians 5:17-21, Ephesians 2:8-9, Titus 3:4-7)
(Verse 1)
One in James verse 17- all good things are the gift of God- read it yourself
Chronicles- first book- Dave prays to bless God- 29:14- comes from Himself!
(Chorus 1)
Oh, God never did get nothing but our sins, man
That He didn't, didn't already have
And 'cause Lord Jesus defeated all our evils
On the cross and returned from the dead
His peace believers receive
(Verse 2)
Then in 2 (Two) Corinthians 5 down- it's found
For our sake Christ bore our
Sin and so sinless becomes sin
so we'd be Christ's righteousness
(Oooh! Oooh!)
(Chorus 2)
Oh, God never did get nothing but our sin, man
That He didn't, didn't already have
And John Edwards said the only thing we're bringing
To salvation's the sin that we have
Which makes it necessary
(Repeat Verse 2)
(Repeat Chorus 1- with last line changed to:
So please believe in Jesus!)
(Oooh! Oooh!)
Very true! Good song.
