I remind you of the Gospel,
You would receive in which you stand;
On proclaiming to the people,
Of what the Father does command.
 
And by which you are being saved,
If you hold fast unto the Word;
No longer to sin be enslaved,
And adhering what you have heard.
 
I delivered you as of first,
The importance what I received;
For developing in you the thirst,
About Jesus as I believed.
 
He was buried and rose in three days,
In accordance to the scriptures;
So that each of us who obeys,
Are able to be new creatures.
 
Unto the twelve He first appeared,
Then unto more than five hundred;
So that He could be then revered,
No longer could the people dread.
 
Many of whom were still alive,
Some of them have fallen asleep;
Till once again Christ will arrive,
For gathering up all His sheep.
 
As to one was untimely born,
Jesus also appeared to me;
Upon the earth where I sojourn,
With my vision that I could see.
 
For I am the least of all those,
Unworthy for to say the least;
Undeserving that Jesus Christ chose,
Invited to attend the feast.
 
Because of in my younger days,
I persecuted the church of God;
Somebody going his own ways,
Never time to honor and laud.
 
But by the grace of God I am,
What I am and His grace towards me;
I shall love and honor the lamb,
Because whose blood has set me free.
 
Whether it was I by His grace,
From what I preach so you believe;
That you will then feel His embrace,
His salvation that you receive.
