found a general's wife
guilty of treason
certain death was the penalty
Pleaded with the king, the general
Can I take her place?
The king was so touched
that he relented
He commuted the death sentence
to a parole by the husband
So moved by the king's gesture
he told his wife
Amazing, did you notice
the king's kind eyes?
I only saw the eyes of he
who for me willingly died
Am I not grateful to Him who died
and commuted my sins' penalty
from damnation to salvation
and reconciliation
He reaches out in His grace
to me by sending His Beloved
Will I not be grateful
to Him who loves me so deeply
Let me focus on Christ
who endured the cross
for me with great joy
I want to stay the course
Let me listen and be wise
under His watchful eye
and tender loving care
from start to end
I long for the glorious welcome
at the other side of heaven
Finishing well and seeing Him
will be reward enough
