Never Ashamed of the Gospel

Romans 1:16-18

I am not ashamed of the Gospel of Christ,
Or the very reason why He was sacrificed;
For it is the power of God unto salvation,
To all who believe averting any temptation;
The righteousness of God being revealed,
For your faith shows what was concealed;
As it's written for by faith you shall live,
By your confession that God will forgive;
As the wrath of God revealed from heaven,
Against those as unholy who is unforgiven.
Holy Scriptures give you a lot of insight,
Unlocking a new door turning on a light;
It provides new wisdom making you wise,
Showing some things to open your eyes;
No matter rich or poor, young or the old,
Mysteries from God will begin to unfold;
Having a message for the Bible to convey,
Each time you read and take time to pray;
That is why I am not ashamed to proclaim,
For the giving of my life in Jesus' name.
