[Lyric] Faith in Being Forever Saved (Shadows of Paragon)

Are you afraid to fall asleep
Without asking for forgiveness
Are you afraid of where you’ll go
If you die in your sleep?

What happens if you sin today
And fall asleep before confession
Will your soul be lost outside of time
’cause you didn’t repent
Convicted by your crime

No, My child it isn’t so
Your faith is all I need
To know you want to be with Me
My forgiveness is your creed

Does it mean you will choose to live in sin
Not thinking of repercussions?
No, it means you don’t have to be perfect in life
Your sin died with Me
My atonement is valid day and night
Your heart My one request
If asleep, if awake
Nothing at stake
I’m your shelter through the night

What happens if you sin today
And fall asleep before confession
Will your soul be lost of outside of time
’cause you didn’t repent

You have been set free
From condemnation and guilt
And their paralyzing effects
To live holier by chance
Than ever on purpose

You are signed by the Son
Sealed by the Spirit
Delivered from sin and strife
Your name has been written
With everlasting ink
Into the Book of Life

You are free to leave
But I’ll never forsake you
No one will ever be able to snatch
You out of My steadfast hands
Your feelings may say
I have left, gone away
Learn to refuse those lies
In My Word, find advise

If you let your faith
Depend on emotions
You will float around
Like a log in the oceans
Instead, let your faith be
A sureness of mind
The rock under your feet

If you let your faith
Depend on emotions
You will float around
Like a log in the oceans
Instead let My Word be
Your sureness of mind
The rock under your feet

(spoken by Eric Clayton)
1_There is therefore now no
Condemnation to them which are in
Christ Jesus, who walk not after the
Flesh, but after the Spirit
2_For the law of the Spirit of life in
Christ Jesus hath made me free from
The law of sin and death
3_For what the law could not do, in
That it was weak through the flesh
God sending his own Son in the
Likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin
Condemned sin in the flesh:
4_ That the righteousness of the law
Might be fulfilled in us, who walk not
After the flesh, but after the Spirit
5_For they that are after the flesh do
Mind the things of the flesh; but they
That are after the Spirit the things
Of the Spirit
6_For to be carnally minded is death;
But to be spiritually minded is life
And peace
(Romans 8:1–6)
