Responsibility Reminder

('Tell out my soul')

2 Timothy 1 v.6-11

***********

Stir up the gift of God, which be in you

Be filled with the Spirit each day anew

For God has not given unto us here

The spirit of fear, but His Spirit dear

 

He be the Spirit of power and love

And of a sound mind, He the holy dove

Be not ashamed therefore of the witness

Of Christ, God's Son, who comes to you to bless

 

But be partakers of the afflictions

Of the gospel, as faithful Christian sons (/daughters)

With the power of God to see you through

His life within you strengthens you anew

 

He has saved us, and called us with holy

Calling, not according to our works, see

But by His own purpose and grace it was

Ere time began given us in Jesus

 

But now our salvation is manifest

By our Saviour's appearing, ever blest

He has abolished death, and has brought life

And immortality to light, now rife
