about

This was my effort to make the book of Jude singable. Jude is a tough and often overlooked book of Scripture. As our church preached through Jude, I found it difficult to find many songs that song provided content to respond well to the content of this book. This was what drove the writing of this song.

Verse 1 is essentially Jude 1-2. The chorus is Jude 3 (with a bit of Romans 1:16 mixed in). Verse 2 is essentially a distillation of Jude 4-23 (especially vss 4, 8-10,17-19, and 20-24). The bridge then basically a paraphrase of Jude 25.

lyrics

Verse 1:
You have called us and loved us, oh God our Father
And You keep us for the glory of Jesus our Savior
Your mercy, peace, and love
Are multiplied to us
Through Christ's redemptive blood

Chorus:
So we struggle by Your strength
For the once-delivered faith
For this Gospel of Your grace
Is Your mighty power to save

Verse 2:
Though wolves prowl among us, distorting the Gospel
With mocking, defiling, reviling most hostile
Built on Your foundation
Secure in salvation
We offer grace to everyone

Bridge:
To the only God our Savior
Through Jesus Christ our Lord
Be glory, majesty, dominion
Now and evermore
