Representative Text

1 Children of sin no more are we,

That bound in sin and bred despair,)
Died with Him, too, that day.

3 His Holy Spirit, too, He gives,
An earnest of His grace,
Sealing him who the truth believes
In Christ, God's righteousness.

4 Glory to God! The truth makes free,
The Spirit, word and blood
For this one purpose doth agree,
To make more like their God.
