Galatians 1:3-5 Grace be to you and peace from God the Father, and from our Lord Jesus Christ,
[4] Who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us from this present evil world, according to the will of God and our Father:
[5] To whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.
It sometimes takes cancer or other problems to bring us to the point of praising Jesus for His shed blood for our sins.
We live in an evil world and need Him every day. Praise Him for each new day.
To God Be The Glory

To God be the glory, great things he hath done: — so loved he the world that he gave us his son, — who yielded his life an atonement for sin, — and opened the lifegate that all may go in.
CHORUS:
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, let the earth hear his voice! — Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, let the people rejoice! — O come to the Father, through Jesus the Son, — and give him the glory, great things he hath done.
Oh, perfect redemption, the purchase of blood, — to ev’ry believer the promise of God. — The vilest offender who truly believes, — that moment from Jesus a pardon receives.
Great things he hath taught us, great things he hath done, — and great our rejoicing through Jesus the Son, — but purer, and higher, and greater will be — our wonder, our transport, when Jesus we see.
Fanny J. Crosby 1875
