Elected in Christ

[stormomar]

God in His great wisdom
made an eternal selection
a people for himself
He chose by election

This He did before all time
the creator first chose indeed
out of His great love a people
to be His own special seed

God has promised to keep those
who come to Him by faith
that before earth's foundation
they were Christ's, scripture saith

Many dislike this doctrine
but God has eternally said
no man can come to the father
unless life is given to the dead

This life can only come
when man is born again
so a new birth is God given
to rescue from satin's den

All that are elected in Christ
Jesus death was them alone
He died on the cross
for their sins to atone
