Bless the Father of our Lord,
Having such great mercy and grace;
We have become in one accord,
Born again that Christ did embrace.

Living hope in resurrection,
As Jesus was raised from the dead;
Giving us a new direction,
His body and blood we are fed.

Inheritance that’s unfading,
Permanently undefiled;
Kept in Heaven and awaiting,
For your calling at revival.

Guarded through faith by the Spirit,
For salvation to be revealed;
Given upon to inherit,
As the Book of Life is unsealed.

You have grieved by these trials,
Through manifold of temptations;
Bombarded by such lifestyles,
That destroys holy foundations.

Your faith being truly tested,
As being more precious than gold;
Does not perish as invested,
Tested by fire to be bold.

The disclosure of Jesus Christ,
Leaves in praise, glory, and honor;
No longer being earthly enticed,
As you have become a fawner.

Though you have not seen, you believe,
As you rejoice, filled with His love;
For the salvation you receive,
Living hope comes from up above.

Rejoice with joy filled with glory,
Of your faith obtained in the end;
The Gospel as the true story;
Soul salvation that God did send.
