Song Lyrics

"Creed"

by Petra
Album: The Power Of Praise

I believe in God the Father, maker of Heaven and Earth,
And in Jesus Christ his only son,
I believe in the virgin birth,
I believe in the man of sorrows, bruised for iniquities,
I believe in the lamb who was crucified and hung between two thieves.

I believe in the resurrection on the third and glorious day,
And I believe in the empty tomb, and the stone that the angel rolled away,
He descended and set the captives free,
And now he sits at God's right hand and prepares a place for me.

This is my creed,
The witness I have heard, the faith that has endured,
This truth is assured,
Through the darkest ages past, though persecuted, it will last,
And I will hold steadfast to this creed.

I believe he sent his Spirit to comfort and to reveal,
To lead us into the truth and light, to baptise and to seal,
I believe that he will come back the way he went away,
And receive us all unto himself, but no man knows the day.

This is my creed,
The witness I have heard, the faith that has endured,
This truth is assured,
Through the darkest ages past, though persecuted, it will last,
And I will hold steadfast to this creed.

I believe he is the judge of all men, small and great,
The resurrected souls of men receive, from him, their fate,
Some to death and some to life, some to their reward,
Some to sing eternal praise forever to our Lord.

And through the darkest ages past, though persecuted, it will last,
And I will hold steadfast to this creed, (the witness I have heard)
This creed, (the faith that has endured)
Whoa,
Whoa, my creed,
Whoa, (the witness I have heard, the faith that has endured)
My creed, (the witness I have heard, the faith that has endured)
(fade)
