| Question: What is repentance unto life?
|
| Answer: Repentance unto life is a saving grace, whereby a sinner,
|
| out of a true sense of his sin, and apprehension of the mercy of God in Christ,
|
| doth, with grief and hatred of his sin, turn from it unto God, with full
|
| purpose of, and endeavour after, new obedience
|
| I gave chase you fled away
|
| You laughed in my face when I beg you stay, yeah
|
| I crawl down to bended knee
|
| You dogged me out treat me like an enemy yeah
|
| And despite the tears in the way you act
|
| If you just come home I take you back

|
| Wherein doth repentance unto life consist?
|
| Answer: Repentance unto life doth chiefly consist in two things
|
| 1. In turning from sin, and forsaking it. |
| «Repent, and turn yourselves from all
|
| your transgressions; |
| so iniquity shall not be your ruin.» |
| «He that covereth his
|
| sins shall not prosper: but whoso confesseth and forsaketh them shall find
|
| mercy
|
| Come home yeah
|
| Come home
|
| Come home yes Oh
|
| In turning unto God. |
| «Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man
|
| his thoughts; |
| and let him return to the Lord, and he will have mercy upon him,
|
| and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon. |
| We must have conformity to him
|
| in grace, before we can have communion with him in glory; |
| grace and glory are
|
| linked and chained together; |
| grace precedes glory, as the morning-star ushers
|
| in the sun. |
| only «The pure in heart shall see God;»
|
| Come home yeah
|
| Come home
|
| Come home yes oh |
