Moral Faith
Richard Newton Sherrer 1951 (Easton)
The righteousness of God,
Is manifested apart;
His Law stops being flawed,
While it shields the heart.
With righteous faith in God,
In Jesus if you believe;
When you honor and laud,
Salvation you receive.
All have sinned and fall short,
Of the glory of God;
Cannot enter His court,
Because of being flawed.
But we are justified,
Having His gift of grace;
For Christ was crucified,
To receive His embrace.
Whom God had put forward,
An atonement by blood;
The bleeding of the Lord,
Blest by the crimson flood.
By faith to be received,
Passing over past sin;
Confessing who believed,
Transforming to begin.
Righteousness at this time,
For the justifier;
Penance abolishes crime,
From the Purifier.
