Hymn for the Week

I BELIEVE IN CHRIST

I believe in Christ; he is my King! With all my heart to him I'll sing;
I'll raise my voice in praise and joy, In grand amens my tongue employ.
I believe in Christ; he is God's Son. On earth to dwell his soul did come.
He healed the sick, the dead he raised. Good works were his; his name be praised.

I believe in Christ; oh, blessed name! As Mary's Son he came to reign
'Mid mortal men, his earthly kin, To save them from the woes of sin.
I believe in Christ, who marked the path, Who did gain all his Father hath,
Who said to men: "Come follow me, That ye, my friends, with God may be."

I believe in Christ--my Lord, my God! My feet he plants on gospel sod.
I'll worship him with all my might; He is the source of truth and light.
I believei n Christ; he ransoms me. From Satan's grasp he sets me free,
And I shall live with joy and love In his eternal courts above.

I believe in Christ; he stands supreme! From him I'll gain my fondest dream;
And while I strive through grief and pain, His voice is heard: "Ye shall obtain."
I believe in Christ; so come what may, With him I'll stand in that great day
When on this earth he comes again To rule among the sons of men.
