Effective Prayer
Richard Newton Sherrer 1951 (Easton)
He came by water and blood,
Not only by the water;
But baptized also by flood,
Cleansing each son and daughter.
His Spirit does testify,
For the Spirit is the truth;
No one can ever deny,
He could be ever uncouth.
The Triune God bears witness,
As recorded in Heaven;
Who holds spiritual fitness,
Salvation will be given.
The witness of men receive,
A testimony greater;
In the Son that they believe,
Eternal life through water.
He that believes in the Son,
Testifies intent of God;
The reason why it was done,
Will be cleansed where they are flawed.
God gave us eternal life,
Through His Son, life is given;
While guiding us through strife,
Giving a path to Heaven.
He that has the Son will live,
Knowing God is no liar;
Repentance, He will forgive.
Voiding eternal fire.
