We have seen to testify,
And no longer wonder why;
Our Father sent His Son,
For saving each of us done.
God looked on us with favor,
By giving us a Savior;
He lives in those who declare,
The Gospel willing to share.
Jesus is the Son of God,
To whom we honor and laud,
For being our Brother,
Along with God the Father.
We also know and believe,
Of what we truly receive;
In through the Holy Spirit,
As to what we inherit.
Those who are living within,
Will live in love without sin;
So then God lives within them,
In judgment will not condemn.
The love of God reached its goal,
Saved and rules over my soul;
So we look with confidence,
That God provides a defense.
While we are in this place,
God will be shining His grace;
With regards as to the love,
That is flowing from above.
Love that is perfect and pure,
Rids fear and makes me feel sure;
Love that will not let me stray,
Stay pure through till Judgment Day.
We love for God loves us first,
Ensuring I will not thirst;
My love as a believer,
Will make me a receiver.
