Faith not Works

But, by faith we’re forgiven
By faith we are saved
By faith, keep abiding
And by faith, will be raised.

Bring every thought captive
Obedient to Christ
In this age of confusion
Where truth is not prized.

Jesus told us, deny self
And take up our cross
Come follow after Him
Count all else as loss.

You must give up all ‘rights’
Your old life, a ‘foreclosure’
Since redeemed, by Christ Jesus
You are His, a new owner.

Yes, daily I come
To abide in You, Lord
To worship and obey
All You have in store.

Now His temple am I
Not this body of sin
For God conquers my flesh
By His Spirit, within.

My heart overflows
I’m blessed beyond measure
For in Christ Jesus
Such unlimited treasures.

Instead count your blessings
Turn daily to God
Be grateful and thankful
For all you have got.

God tells us, be filled
With His Spirit, within
But except we repent
Lies a barrier, of sin.

And tossed baby Ruth
Into the bushes
Yet God surely guarded
As with Moses, midst bushes.
