CHURCH OF GOD

church of God for whom Christ died,

claim thy gifts and praise the Giver!

Ye are washed and sanctified!

Sanctified by God the Father,

and by Jesus Christ His Son,

and by God the Holy Spirit,

holy, holy, Three in One.

By His will He sanctifieth,

by the Spirit‟s power within;

by the loving hand that chasteneth,

fruits of righteousness to win;

by His truth, and by His promise,

by His Word, His gift unpriced,

by His blood, and by our union

With the risen life of Christ.

Holiness by faith in Jesus.

Not by effort of thine own,

sin‟s dominion crushed and broken,

by the power of grace alone;

God‟s own holiness within thee,

His own beauty on thy brow,

this shall be thy pilgrim brightness,

this thy blessed portion now.

He will sanctify thee wholly;

body, spirit, soul shall be

blameless till thy Saviour‟s coming

in His glorious majesty:

He hath perfected for ever

those whom He hath sanctified;

spotless, glorious and holy

is the Church, His chosen Bride
