Christ, not religion

To be set free from the bond of sin

To have the joy and peace within

To live a life full of meaning

Believe into the Lord.

Man’s way to please God—religion;

God’s way—a living Person;

Christ is God’s way of salvation;

Believe and you’ll be saved.

It pleases God to rescue us

Out of this present evil age

And to reveal His Son in us—

Most peerless One of all!

We have received Christ the Spirit

Through faith and not our merit;

Having begun by the Spirit

We learn to live by faith.

We are the sons of the living God

Enjoy the blessings of our Lord

Grace to our spirit He doth afford

From our self-effort freed.

Oh what a joy! Christ now lives in us;

No longer I—how glorious!

He’s daily growing within us

Till He is formed in us.

We live and walk by the Spirit

Enjoy the fruit of the Spirit;

To Him our whole lives we commit;

All else is vanity.
