NEW HOPE MUSIC - "Alive And Active #5"

"For the Word of God is alive and active.
sharper than any double-edged sword,
it penetrates even to dividing soul
and spirit, joints and marrow;
it judges the thoughts and
attitudes of the heart.

Like Snow (Proverbs 26:1-5 NIV)

Song Page Play MP3

Written for Alma Juat, from the Philippines

Like snow in summer or rain in harvest,
honor is not fitting for a fool. (xxx)
Like a fluttering sparrow or a darting swallow,
an undeserved curse does not come to rest.

A whip for the horse, a bridle for the donkey,
and a rod for the backs of fools! (xxx)
Do not answer a fool according to his folly,
or you yourself will be just like him.
Answer a fool according to his folly,
or he will be wise in his own eyes.

Proverbs chapter 26: 1 through 5
Proverbs chapter 26: 1 through 5

God is my salvation and
my strength and my song
God is my salvation and
my strength and my song

Behold, God is my salvation,
I will trust and not be afraid;
Behold, God is my salvation,
I will trust and not be afraid;

For the Lord God is my strength and song,
And He has become my salvation.
For the Lord God is my strength and song,
And He has become my salvation.

This is what I told you
while I was still with you:
Everything must be fulfilled,
everything must be
fulfilled that is written,
that is written about Me

written about Me in the Law of Moses,
written about Me in the Prophets and the Psalms.

(repeat)

This is what I told you
while I was still with you:
Everything must be fulfilled,
everything must be
fulfilled that is written,
that is written about Me

All have sinned and fall short of
the glory of God, and
all are justified freely
by His grace
(repeat)

all are justified freely
by His grace
through the redemption
that came by Christ Jesus.
(repeat)

Since we have been justified through faith,
we have peace with God,
we have peace with God
through our Lord Jesus Christ,
through whom we have
gained access by faith
into this grace in
which we now stand.
(repeat)

And we boast in the hope,
and we boast in the hope,
in the hope of the glory of God.
And we boast in the hope,
and we boast in the hope,
in the hope of the glory of God.

Hope does not put us to shame,
because God’s love has been poured out
into our hearts through the Holy Spirit,
who has been given to us.
(repeat)

You see, at just the right time,
when we were still powerless,
when we were still powerless,
Christ died for the ungodly.
(repeat)

The Spirit you received
brought about your adoption,
brought about your adoption,
your adoption to sonship.
(repeat)

And by Him we cry, “Abba, Father.”
and by Him we cry, “Abba, Father.”
“Abba, Abba, Abba Father.”

The Spirit Himself
testifies with our spirit
that we are God’s children,
that we are God’s children.
(repeat, then chorus)

Now if we are children,
then we are heirs—
heirs of God and
co-heirs with Christ
(repeat, then chorus)

For what I received I passed on to you
as of first importance:
that Christ died for our sins
according to the Scriptures,
(repeat)

that He was buried,
that He was raised
on the third day
according to the Scriptures,

For what I received I passed on to you
as of first importance:
