I am a new creation, it says so in God's word. Because Christ dwells within me, that's why I'm new, you see. I'll be a new creation through all eternity. Before I came to know Christ, what bondage I was in; So fearful of God's judgment because of all my sin. But then God came and told me, "My Son has died for thee. He'll come and dwell within you for all eternity." Before I knew God loved me by offering up His Son, I was an old creation, by darkness overcome. I struggled in my blindness, His truth I could not see. But in His time appointed, the darkness had to flee. Now in His Light I'm dwelling, what He's like is more clear. And when I see His nature, it melts away my fear. His perfect love adorns me, around me and within. And when I see His goodness, I fall in love with Him. That new creation's perfect, no fixing up it needs. The old has gone, the new has come, by faith, I need to see. You say, "I can't believe it, it surely seems untrue." But what God says about you is really true of you. Since I'm a new creation, each day's a choice for me. To walk in faith, believing, in things I cannot see. As I stay close to Jesus, more like Him I will be. I am a new creation, now and eternally. ------=_NextPart_000_000D_01C3CF8F.AEF26520 Content-Type: text/html; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable
