Children of God

All of us who believe,
That Jesus is the Christ;
Know what they will receive,
Since He was sacrificed.

We are children of God,
And we love the Father;
For we honor and laud,
With Christ as a Brother.

As one of His children,
We do love and obey;
And faith does not weaken,
That would lead us astray.

To love God means to stand,
Obeying of His Word;
Abiding His command,
In all that you have heard.

We win over the earth,
Triumph over Satan;
With a faith of its worth,
Never to cause treason.

I am washed in the blood,
That made me free from sin;
Cleansing of earthly crud,
That corrupted within.
