Lyrics
Chorus:
We believe in one true God
Father, Spirit, Son
One Church, one faith, one Lord of all
His kingdom come
We believe in God the Father
Almighty, Lord of life
Creator of the Heavens
The earth, the sea, the sky
And we believe in Jesus
The only son of God
Born of the virgin Mary
Who lived as one of us
CHORUS
We believe that Jesus suffered
Was beaten, crucified
He died and he was buried
Entombed in darkest night
The third day rose victorious
Ascended into Heav’n
Will one day come to judge us
The living and the dead
CHORUS
We believe in God the Spirit
One church, empowered by Him
Communion of God’s people
Forgiveness of our sin;
Our bodies resurrected
To everlasting life
To worship, love and wonder
Before the throne of Christ
CHORUS
The great doctrinal statement of the church set to music
The Apostles Creed is the church’s great historic doctrinal statement of the Christian faith, and in reciting it together we are joining with the generations of Christ’s followers down through history who attest to God’s faithfulness to His church. Music has an incredible and unique power, not only to help us express our feelings, but to teach us great truths and enable us to declare our faith together. This version of the Apostle’s Creed does just that, enabling us in a musical context to express our faith communally in our Trinitarian God. I hope this musical expression of the Creed will be of use to churches who join their voices together every week to declare the great truths of the faith.
