EPHESIANS 2 ( REAGAE CHRISTIAN BLUES)

MADE ALIVE - Ephesians 2 | Ras JD

A new song from Ephesians chapter 2

Intro

Yeah, this one is from Ephesians 2
I was dead, but Jah made me new

Chorus

But God is rich in mercy, His love is true
He made me alive when I was through
Not by my works, it is a gift from You
By undeserved kindness, I am made brand new

Verse 1

I was walking dead in my sins and shame
Following the world, playing a losing game
My flesh was leading, my heart was blind
No hope, no God, no peace to find
But Jah looked down with a loving eye
He heard my soul when I started to cry

Chorus

But God is rich in mercy, His love is true
He made me alive when I was through
Not by my works, it is a gift from You
By undeserved kindness, I am made brand new

Verse 2

Now I am saved by faith, not by what I do
It is God's gift, and it pulls me through
No man can boast, no man can claim
I am His handiwork, I praise His name
He made me for good works, He planned my way
I am walking in His light, every single day

Bridge

Once I was far off, now I am near
He broke down the wall, He removed the fear
No more a stranger, no more alone
I am in God's household, I am finally home
He is my peace, He made us one
The work is finished in Christ the Son

Chorus - Slow Out

But God is rich in mercy, His love is true
He made me alive when I was through...

Outro

Made alive, made alive
In Christ Jesus, I am made alive

Blog Post: Made Alive - My New Song From Ephesians 2

Tonight I sat down with Ephesians chapter 2 and I could not put it down.

It says we were dead in our trespasses and sins. That was me. Walking after the world, following my flesh, no hope and without God. I know what it feels like to be down low and not be able to get up on my own.

But then verse 4 says, "But God, being rich in mercy, because of his great love... made us alive together with the Christ."

That is my story. Not by my works. Not by my strength. By His undeserved kindness. It is God's gift.

I wrote this song "Made Alive" so anybody who feels stuck, tired, or far off will know: You are not too far for God to reach. He can break the wall. He can bring you near. He can make you alive again.

If this song blessed you, please like, share, and subscribe. Leave a comment and tell me which line hit you the most.

Stay strong, stay in the Word, and keep walking in the good works God prepared for you.

Love,
Ras JD
