DYING TO LIVE

We live in hope by saving grace

With Jesus to abide

To see one day The Father’s face

Beyond the great divide


But is it God we have in view?

Is Christ our chosen way?

Is righteousness in all we do?

In everything we say?


When claiming Truth has set us free

God’s Spirit dwells within

Can friends and neighbours truly see?

We’ve no more lust to sin


To God this world’s of grave concern

Her children’s souls are dear

Christ suffered death for us to turn

By faith to live down here


Here true growth can swift begin

Where self begins to die

When turning backs to wanton sin

Jesus to magnify


For just like seedlings in the earth

One’s flesh must death pursue

Until in spirit reach new birth

And rise to life anew


Although we travel death’s dark vale

We venture not in vain

The power of God will never fail

To raise in Truth again


Regard no treasure sacrificed

Suffer this world of strife

Steadfast beholding Jesus Christ

Man’s only Way to life…..
