By faith we have God's approval,
For His Spirit starts removal;
So we truly have peace with God,
If sincerely honor and laud.
All because of Lord Jesus Christ,
Hung on the cross and sacrificed;
For being as our Savior,
As means for God to find favor.
So we brag having confidence,
With Christ there as our defense;
For the glory that we receive,
All because we truly believe.
We also brag when we suffer,
Those days when things do get rougher;
Suffering helps us to endure,
While bracing yourself for more.
Endurance creates character,
From any mulish obstructer;
For standing firm in confidence,
As a mighty line of defense.
We never have to be ashamed,
Anything that I have proclaimed;
For the love of God has poured out,
Into my heart to block the doubt.
There was a time we were helpless,
Until Christ died and He did bless;
Since He had the courage to die,
For people that just cheat and lie.
Jesus died for all the sinners,
Giving a chance to be winners;
For God to demonstrate His love,
And how it flows down from above.
If death of His Son is ignored,
Then you have no Savior or Lord;
And the Holy Spirit's mission failed,
Since you are convicted and jailed.
