Who has enchanted you?
About Christ crucified;
Distorting what is true,
Because of how they lied.
Did you get the Spirit,
By the works of the Law;
Or by faith through merit,
Although having a flaw.
Is your faith as you heard,
Or are you that foolish;
Made perfect through the Word,
The Spirit would cherish.
Did you suffer in vain?
That the Spirit supplies;
If faith causes a pain,
To open up your eyes.
If works come from the Law,
Through your faith by hearing;
That the Spirit does call,
As you are revering.
In the Lord you believe,
Counted as righteousness;
Salvation you receive,
Within your consciousness.
Those in faith that you know,
That God would justify;
That the Scriptures will show,
Pagans cannot deny.
You shall bless the nation,
Abraham was the man;
For a new foundation,
Whose faith was in the plan.
