Although we came from parents in the flesh

In truth we are creations, orphan-born;

As mortal beings, while we breathe we’re fresh

But then we die and turn to dust to mourn.

Yet Jesus came and set the record straight:

He took our sins and on the cross He died;

He died for you and me, both small and great

Returning three days later to abide.

If we have faith in Jesus Christ as King

Believing fast that He’s our Savior dear,

We are adopted by our God to sing

As children bound for Heaven now so near.

By faith in Jesus, God’s our Father now.

By faith we walk like Christ; He’ll show us how.

~~~~~~~~~~~

For you are all the children of God

by faith in Jesus Christ.

Galatians 3:26 KJV

To fellowship with God and Christ His Son

Is truly what we strive for every day,

For when we’re one with them as they are one

The Triune God will have His will and way.

Adopted by our God, He’s Father now,

So we draw near to Him through Jesus Christ,

And in His loving presence He’ll endow

His endless love of us so well sufficed.

In Jesus we partake the bread of life;

His boundless love does pulse within our veins

To send us to a world of pain and strife

To rescue more of His that still remains.

In God the Father and in God the Son

In God the Holy Ghost we all are One.

~~~~~~~~~~~

… truly our fellowship is with the Father,

and with his Son Jesus Christ.

1 John 1:3 KJV
