To know God
I am writing unto you,
Because you are forgiven;
No longer is payment due,
For the pardon from Heaven.
Christ existed from the start,
For the victory you won;
And filling love in your heart,
Since the Father sent His Son.
You should know God the Father,
That had sent His only Son;
Which makes Christ as your Brother,
Defeating the evil one.
The Word of God lives in you,
And it is keeping you strong;
Because you know it is true,
Though agony may prolong.
So you can claim liberty,
Over the dark depths of sin;
For Christ gives you victory,
Evils that poisoned within.
Love not the world to love God,
This world has an evil seed;
Offering things that are flawed,
Filled with indulgence and greed.
Those who are loving this place,
Do not have His love within;
Your love is lust in disgrace,
Causing eyes and flesh to sin.
