I read Galatians today I read it three times
You see it's a short book I pray that this all rhymes
Paul was a Jew he followed Gods law
He then found Christ and this is what he saw

He didn't need the old ways he had salvation given free
He counted on the faith for the one who hung there from the tree
You see God had told Abraham this prophesy would come true
All you need in these bad times is faith for God and Jesus too

Paul let Peter know I mean he got right in his face
For knowing of the Lords great gift salvation by His grace
For Peter did the big flip flop He tried to go both ways
He preached that all you need is faith and then he turned away

He went back to his people and he tried to live within the law
But you see Christ had already been there He had died for us all
You can't live by the law for you are a natural born sinner
You must have faith to enter heaven and be a real winner

You must live with kindness you must also live with love
You have to have it in your heart seek faith from above
You don't have to offer burnt offerings you don't have to be true
To the law of the Old Testament Jesus has done it all for you

If you have faith in Jesus you know you're already free
You can live your life right here on earth and know someday you'll be
In the presence of God on high he has sworn with His Sons own blood
He has given us a way out of the law It is only with faith from above
