So what could I ever say?
Should we continue to sin?
Since we always disobey,
And we have no discipline.
I could never think like that,
And still have the confidence;
Just getting lazy and fat,
Under sinful influence.
I do not know all of you,
If you were baptized or not;
And if faith is really true,
Or being shameful a lot.
All who were baptized in Christ,
Were baptized into His death;
So we had been sacrificed,
But then were given new breath .
We were placed into the tomb,
And then were brought back to life;
Through the spiritual womb,
To conquer the midst of strife.
By power of the Father,
A new kind of life we live;
Making Christ our Brother,
And all sins God does forgive.
If we become united,
And live within Jesus Christ;
Purity is invited,
To block from being enticed.
We know who we used to be,
And longer have restlessness;
And the Father will then see,
Us without the sinfulness.
For we are no longer slaves,
Here upon this sinful place;
Not prisoners to the graves,
Because Christ has shed His grace.
