<\/a>The love of the Father is voiced through the lyrics of \u201cOnce and For All.\u201d We sing of the elements of Jesus\u2019 sacrifice. Taking our sin upon Himself. Suffering on our behalf and then crescendos with the resurrection of Jesus.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
But in the middle of this message, we are asked to state what we believe. So what do you believe? Do you believe what you sing? In this particular melody, you are stating that you believe Jesus is God and that He is the Savior of the world. I pray that you believe these words.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Sometimes we sing a song because we like the tune. Sometimes because of the rhythm. But above all, we should sing music that is glorifying to God and speaks truth to our lives. If the lyrics are not what we believe, we should not let the words pass through our lips.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I\u2019ve know people who will not sing certain songs because it is contradicting to God\u2019s message or it skews His message in some way. Are you willing to be one of those people?<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I pray that as we sit in a worship service, listen to our car radio or hum catchy melodies that we also reflect upon the lyrics of the songs we allow to penetrate our hearts.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
On the flip side, there are lyrics to some songs that are convicting and calls us to action. I also pray that you will be move by these lyrics as well. I pray that you will listen and obey.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
So today I share version 2 of \u201cOnce and For All.\u201d I am so thankful for this group of men who so willingly share their talents with the rest of us.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Once and for all
\nThe Father’s love
\nHe is the light in the darkness
\nWho took on flesh
\nAnd took our place
\nThe weight of the world on His shoulders
\nThe weight of the world on His shoulders
\n <\/p>\n
Chorus:
\nWe believe our God is Jesus
\nWe believe that He is Lord
\nWe believe that He has saved us
\nFrom sin and death
\nOnce and for all
\n <\/p>\n
Once and for all
\nOur debt is paid
\nThere on the cross it is finished
\nThe Lamb of God for us was slain
\nUp from the grave He is risen
\nUp from the grave He is risen<\/p>\n
(Chorus)
