TO PETER
“Simon Peter, a servant and apostle of Jesus Christ
Grace and peace be yours in abundance
Through the knowledge of God, and Jesus, our lord
His divine power has given us everything we need for life
And godliness through our knowledge of him
Who called us by his own glory and goodness
Through these, he has given us his very great and
Precious promises so that through him
You may participate in the divine nature
And escape the corruption in the world
Caused by evil desires”
For this very reason…
VERSE 1:
I will make every effort, to add to my faith
Goodness, knowledge, self-control
And perseverance, too
And to perseverance, I’ll add godliness
And to godliness, I’ll add brotherly kindness, too
REFRAIN:
- Jesus, lord, add your love
- Jesus, lord, add your love
- Jesus, lord, add your love
- Jesus, lord, add your love
VERSE 2:
For if I possess these qualities in increasing measure, yeah
They will keep me from being ineffective and unproductive
In my knowledge of our lord Jesus Christ
VERSE 1
REFRAIN
VERSE 3:
But if I do not have them, I am near sighted and blind
For I have forgotten, that I have been cleansed
From my past sins, through our lord…Jesus Christ
Thank you , Father
