These Are My JOTtings, Part #2

TULIP

T: Humans are broken to the core.
We're dead in trespasses and sins.
Our spirits can't arise before
The Lord of Glory life amends.

U: For at the Founding of the Earth,
the Lord has chosen all He saves.
His Hands create Elect new birth,
redeeming spirits from their graves.

L: Th'Atonement is for those He saves
to limit cost upon Him laid.
Through bles-sed Blood, they're no more slaves.
His Greatest Gift is finished, weighed.

I: Rebellious humans at the heart
are fashioned into wanting Him.
The Tuner's Fork creates the start.
Once bitter-spoke, now worship's hymn.

P: When saved, redeemed, and from Hell free,
th'Elect is never lost again.
Now hid in Wings, that Christ we see.
Fore'er Messiah, He did win.
