Child of God

Child of God* am I, cleansed from being sinfully defiled
Hoisted as His redeemed from hell’s fire and transgression-wages
Illumined to esteem and magnify the Lord by faith’s light
Loved and led toward virtuous transformation…
Driven by the Holy Spirit along His prudence.

Overwhelmed with grace midst overtaking blessings…
Follower of the Lord, I yield to His compassionate sovereignty.

Gladness girds my soul and grips my heart while I serve my Master
Ordered to live according to His Word for His honour…
Doing His will, pleasing Him, strengthened by Christ.

*Galatians 3:26 For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus.
