Translated Into His Kingdom
Translated into God's Kingdom
Through a new spiritual birth,
Abundant life in Christ is ours
Right here upon the earth.
Into our hearts His Spirit came,
Where once was darkness grim,
Imparting fruits of righteousness...
Love, joy and peace in Him,
A life of communion with God
As we walk in His way,
Prayer and worship with His people
As we serve Him each day.
Life in His glorious Kingdom
Is one of victory,
As we praise our loving Saviour
For setting our souls free.
And when we reach our home above
To live forevermore,
We'll praise Him through eternity
On that celestial shore.
"Giving thanks unto the Father...Who hath delivered us from
the power of darkness, and translated us into the kingdom
of his dear Son"
(Col.1:12-13)
