WE ARE THE SONS OF GOD!
Don Fortner
(Tune:
The Son Of God Goes Forth To War #412

When Adam in the garden sinned
And
broke his Maker's law,
He died and we all died in him -
We're
ruined by the fall!
But
Christ, the Second Adam, came
At God's
appointed time,
To save a chosen multitude
By His
own grace divine.
Christ
lived in perfect righteousness
And
shed His precious blood:
Through
His obedience and blood,
We're
justified by God!
The Holy Spirit now applies
Christ's
sin atoning blood,
And by
His mighty, sovereign grace
He
gives us faith in God!
Not by
the works which we have done
But by
God's sov'reign grace,
In
Christ we're saved, forever saved!
Our God
shall have our praise!
The
Father's free, electing love,
The
Son's redeeming blood,
And by
the Spirit's mighty call,
We are the sons of God!
