I Believe in God the Father

lyricist: Fanny Crosby, 1892
Composer: Ira Sankey

I believe in God the Fa­ther

Who cre­at­ed Heav’n and earth;

Made the stars to shine so bright­ly

Gave each liv­ing thing its birth.

I be­lieve in God the Fa­ther

And in Je­sus Christ His Son

Who was cru­ci­fied on Cal­v’ry

For the sins that all have done.

I be­lieve He died

was bur­ied

Rose again

no more to die;

And as­cend­ing to His Fa­ther

Took His seat with Him on high.

I be­lieve in God the Spir­it

Sent to us from Heav’n above

And the Church our bless­èd Sav­ior

Hath re­deemed by His great love.

I be­lieve in His for­give­ness

And His won­drous pow­er to save;

In a glo­ri­ous re­sur­rect­ion

And a life be­yond the grave.

I be­lieve in God the Fa­ther

I be­lieve in God the Son

And in God the Ho­ly Spir­it

Everlasting Three in One.
