Divine power has given,
All that we need for living;
With love that flows from Heaven,
Compassion with forgiving.
This power that was given,
Through the knowledge of the One;
Whose glory up in Heaven,
Integrity from the Son.
Through His glory has given,
His promises of value;
Integrity from Heaven,
Divine in nature to you.
Through promises you will share,
Are of a divine nature;
That sinful desires dare,
Invading the new creature.
You escape the corruption,
That sinful desires cause;
No longer a disruption,
For abiding by the laws.
Go make every effort,
To faith add integrity;
Within your knowledge insert,
Increasing ability.
Endurance through self-control,
Self-control through godliness;
Godliness into your soul,
Christian love to blessedness.
Your knowledge of our Lord,
Is living and productive;
With being in one accord,
Preach and be instructive.
The more you keep doing it,
You will never fall away;
God ensures you inherit,
Your fair share come Judgment Day.
