We are Jews by nature,
Not sinners as pagans;
Now as a new creature,
And not some hooligans.
We are Jewish by birth,
And not evildoers;
Living on planet earth,
As being pursuers.
Pursuers of the truth,
Where living water flows;
Never being uncouth,
No matter where one goes.
Yet knowing that a man,
Could not be justified;
Only God had a plan,
As Christ is crucified.
By the works of the Law,
But through the faith of Christ;
He purifies each flaw,
Through the blood sacrificed.
So in Christ we believe,
God gives His approval;
In order to receive,
Blessings through removal.
Streams of living water,
A removal will bless;
Erasing the blotter,
As long as we confess.
Through God and His effort,
We can never receive;
No faith we can't convert,
And so we must believe.
I have been crucified,
And I no longer live;
Gone are the times I lied,
Because God did forgive.
