The Righteous Shall Live by Faith

Laying hold, His every promise
We are a child, of God divine
Trust Him wholly, amidst our suffering
He will deliver, His perfect time.

Not avenging, separating
Building bridges, not walls
Not rejecting, but embracing
Seek Gods love, He answers all.

Since we were purchased, by His blood
The price, now fully paid
Sealed and stamped for eternity
We’re counted righteous, be not afraid.

Such love, that passes knowledge
With which, you may be filled
With all the fullness of God
Through His Spirit, be fulfilled.

Know God’s Word, teaches both
God’s sovereignty, His will
But also, our heart’s free choice
To stay hardened, or Spirit filled.

Then in place of merely drifting
If His child, and we obey
Seek His Word and His Spirit
Be transformed, by Christ each day.

Grip my heart, with Your Truth
I am loved, beyond measure
Despite all my failures
In Christ, I’m You’re treasure.

For His love in Christ Jesus
Our Lord, is love eternal
We are forever, in His hand
More than secure, His love encircles.

Yes, His righteousness revealed
From faith to faith
As Habakkuk wrote
“The just shall live by faith”.

This Christmas, remember
The gift that God gave
His beloved dear Son
To seek and to save.
