Gospel
SALVATION IS NOT
Salvation is not just to say the few words
"Lord Jesus come into my heart"
But to be convicted of sin by the Spirit of God
And from evil to depart
No man can serve two masters
The Master Himself has said
You cannot live for self and the world
When you've been quickened from the dead
A new creature in Christ is the product
On display for the world to see
A turning from sin to the Saviour
The Light of the World lives in thee
The filthy rags of our righteousness
Have been washed in the blood of the Lamb
New garments He's given His children
On the authority of the Great I Am
From confession of the mouth to His Lordship
A heart believing from the dead He arose!
Springs a desire to live wondrously different
In the battle He's won over His foes
That sin nature still striving to slay me
Brings confrontation each day
But the Spirit of God living within
Gives victory as I yield Him His way
The Lord Jesus Christ has come into my heart
I know that He's living in me
My soul still afire with the prayer He has planted
Help me live this day Lord, unto Thee.
