To join with the hosts of faith;
Jesus Christ gives me the courage,
And without doubts I will win.

I will gain the joyful vict'ry,
With the soldiers of the Lord;
They will clad in greatest glory,
All around the whole wide world.

1s 42:1 FORGiVENEssiHeii 1ei:frGRACE

I was sinking in darkness imprisoned,
And they said I would never escape it;
When Lord Jesus heard all of my groaning,
He declared it, "This lost soul is now mine."
CHORUS
Jesus Christ in His love freed me,
Glory to Him //Amen.//
2
In the prison the Devil said to me,
That he wanted to kill all of mankind;
When the Savior heard all of my groaning,
He said to me, "Now J've come to save you."

3
Oh, how glorious that life is with Jesus,
Giving praises and singing to our God;
And by saying that I've been saved by grace,
I am singing with great jubilation.
4
This Church belongs to the Lord Jesus Christ,
Jesus Christ said that He would return;
Here in this Church are all of those convicts,
Jesus freed them, they now live in great joy.
