I need not fear, though greatly I've sinned,
for I have a greater Saviour.
Death holds no power, oh where is its sting?
I have a greater Saviour.
I cannot hide the depth of my shame,
but you are a greater Saviour.
Over my failings your promise remains;
you are a greater Saviour.
And I will give glory and praise to your name;
so great is the mercy that lifted my shame.
No matter how burdened, my heart will proclaim:
you are a greater Saviour,
you are a greater Saviour.
Jesus, my hope for all of my days,
there is no greater Saviour.
To you be all power, all honour and praise;
there is no greater Saviour.
Jesus, no one, no one is greater than you.
My Saviour, no one, no one is greater than you.

I stumbled across a quote by the hymn writer, and slave-trade abolitionist, John Newton. On his death-bed, he is credited as having said "My memory is nearly gone, but I remember two things — that I am a great sinner, and that Christ is a great Saviour". Those words struck me as an incredibly succinct summary of the gospel - that no matter how great our sin, the saving grace of Christ can, has and will always cover it.
