And ev'ry word as read,
Just as the Christ has bled and died
And risen from the dead.
So will the message be proclaimed
To ev'ry nation known,
Beginning from Jerusalem,
The grafted branches grow.
Repentance will be preached with pow'r,
To ev'ry nation known.
Forgiveness for the sins of men
Will be the tribal song.
It's promised from the lips of Him
Who gave His life in love.
None can refute its acc'racy;
He sealed it by His blood.
And we have known His love ourselves,
And therefore must respond,
Beginning from Jerusalem
To places far beyond.
The promise of the Spirit gives
The power and the will,
To sacrifice and bear our cross
To see His word fulfilled.
And in the future reign above,
That message we've proclaimed
Will be the praise of ev'ry one
Who's purchased by the Lamb.
So ev'ry people, tribe and tongue,
All nations of this sphere,
We come now with the Word of God,
The word of faith is near.

"Faith is putting your confidence in Christ to save you from your life of sin and the hell you deserve. The eaglet had no one he could trust but his father. He looked to his father alone for help. And you have no hope but Christ. He died for sinners like you. In fact, He does everything to save the one who comes to Him. Each believer will someday find that even the desire to turn to Him is a gift from Him."
