We were under control,
By the laws Moses gave;
Till faith came to the soul,
That was able to save.
We were under control,
Until it was revealed;
That Christ had paid the toll,
And our faith unsealed.
Before Christ was the Law,
Served as a guardian;
Preventing any flaw,
Unlike a Barbarian.
So if we will believe,
The reason behind Christ;
Salvation we receive,
Why He was sacrificed.
So now we have faith here,
No longer guardian;
But we still have to fear,
The Authoritarian.
For you are a child,
Of God the Father;
Be tender and mild,
With Jesus your Brother.
So if you were baptized,
The name of Christ you wear;
If or not circumcised,
Any flaw would still tear.
A family as one,
No matter whom you are;
Kill giants through the Son,
He will heal your scar.
