I can't believe I've never heard this song before, but I was just watching TV and saw it being performed by Bill Gaither and the gang. It should be the Christian national anthem. The last verse is particularly rousing...
"I Then Shall Live" by Gloria Gaither
I then shall live
As one who has been forgiven.
I'll walk with joy to know my debts are paid.
I know my name is clear before my Father.
I am His child, and I am not afraid.
So greatly pardoned, I'll forgive my brother.
The law of love I gladly will obey.
I then shall live
As one who has learned compassion.
I've been so loved
That I'll risk loving, too.
I know how fear builds walls instead of bridges.
I'll dare to see another's point of view.
And when relationships demand commitment,
Then I'll be there to care and follow through.
Your Kingdom come around and through and in me,
Your power and glory, let them shine through me.
Your hallowed name, oh, may I bear with honor,
And may your living Kingdom come in me.
The bread of life, oh, may I share with honor,
And may You feed a hungry world through me.
Amen.
After His Heart
