His Word Remains in Us
We are guilty and helpless in our own sinful plight,
But God loves and saved us from the fall.
He sent His Son into a world of night,
Not to condemn, but rescue one and all.
That through Him - Prince of Peace - we might be saved,
And boldly come before the throne of grace.
No longer lost, no longer sin-enslaved,
Clothed in His righteousness, we take our place.
Because we have been pardoned, we now boldly stand,
With petitions we ask of, heard and known.
A royal priesthood, commissioned by His own hand,
A holy nation, proclaimed as His own.
We remain in Him, our hearts renewed thus -
And His living Word remains in us.
