Lyrics
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.
7 Because the carnal mind
is enmity against God: for
it is not subject to the
law of God, neither indeed
can be.
8 So then they that are in
the flesh cannot please
God.
9 But ye are not in the
flesh, but in the Spirit,
if so be that the Spirit
of God dwell in you. Now
if any man have not the
Spirit of Christ, he is
none of his.
10 And if Christ be in
you, the body is dead
because of sin; but the
Spirit is life because of
righteousness.
11 But if the Spirit of
him that raised up Jesus
from the dead dwell in
you, he that raised up
Christ from the dead shall
also quicken your mortal
bodies by his Spirit that
dwelleth in you.
12 Therefore, brethren, we
are debtors, not to the
flesh, to live after the
flesh.
13 For if ye live after
the flesh, ye shall die:
but if ye through the
Spirit do mortify the
deeds of the body, ye
shall live.
14 For as many as are led
by the Spirit of God, they
are the sons of God.
15 For ye have not
received the spirit of
bondage again to fear; but
ye have received the
Spirit of adoption,
whereby we cry, Abba,
Father.
16 The Spirit itself
beareth witness with our
spirit, that we are the
children of God:
17 And if children, then
heirs; heirs of God, and
joint-heirs with Christ;
if so be that we suffer
with him, that we may be
also glorified together.
18 For I reckon that the
sufferings of this present
time are not worthy to be
compared with the glory
which shall be revealed in
us.
19 For the earnest
expectation of the
creature waiteth for the
manifestation of the sons
of God.
20 For the creature was
made subject to vanity,
not willingly, but by
reason of him who hath
subjected the same in
hope,
21 Because the creature
itself also shall be
delivered from the bondage
of corruption into the
glorious liberty of the
children of God.
22 For we know that the
whole creation groaneth
and travaileth in pain
together until now.
23 And not only they, but
ourselves also, which have
the firstfruits of the
Spirit, even we ourselves
groan within ourselves,
waiting for the adoption,
to wit, the redemption of
our body.
24 For we are saved by
hope: but hope that is
seen is not hope: for what
a man seeth, why doth he
yet hope for?
25 But if we hope for that
we see not, then do we
with patience wait for it.
26 Likewise the Spirit
also helpeth our
infirmities: for we know
not what we should pray
for as we ought: but the
Spirit itself maketh
intercession for us with
groanings which cannot be
uttered.
27 And he that searcheth
the hearts knoweth what is
the mind of the Spirit,
because he maketh
intercession for the
saints according to the
will of God.
28 And we know that all
things work together for
good to them that love
God, to them who are the
called according to his
purpose.
29 For whom he did
foreknow, he also did
predestinate to be
conformed to the image of
his Son, that he might be
the firstborn among many
brethren.
30 Moreover whom he did
predestinate, them he also
called: and whom he
called, them he also
justified: and whom he
justified, them he also
glorified.
31 What shall we then say
to these things? If God be
for us, who can be against
us?
32 He that spared not his
own Son, but delivered him
up for us all, how shall
he not with him also
freely give us all things?
33 Who shall lay any thing
to the charge of God's
elect? It is God that
justifieth.
34 Who is he that
condemneth? It is Christ
that died, yea rather,
that is risen again, who
is even at the right hand
of God, who also maketh
intercession for us.
35 Who shall separate us
from the love of Christ?
shall tribulation, or
distress, or persecution,
or famine, or nakedness,
or peril, or sword?
36 As it is written, For
thy sake we are killed all
the day long; we are
accounted as sheep for the
slaughter.
37 Nay, in all these
things we are more than
conquerors through him
that loved us.
38 For I am persuaded,
that neither death, nor
life, nor angels, nor
principalities, nor
powers, nor things
present, nor things to
come,
39 Nor height, nor depth,
nor any other creature,
shall be able to separate
us from the love of God,
which is in Christ Jesus
our Lord.
