In Christ (We Have The Power)



In Christ (We Have The Power)
Author: Mark V. Markov

Do always believe
To God be forever true
All that believe
Me and you
This we must always know
This living faith
To never let go

In Christ we have the power
Filled with Love Divine
As we follow our Lord,
In this life.
To God be the glory
His power is forever known
Glory be to the Ancient One
Who sits on the throne

All our life
We believed and waited
As we stand here
Doing God's will
This chance we will never let go

In Christ we have the power
Filled with Love Divine
As we follow our Lord,
In this life.
To God be the glory
His power is forever known
Glory be to the Ancient One
Who sits on the throne

Me and you
We always know
He will lead us
As far as we need to go

In Christ we have the power
Filled with Love Divine
As we follow our Lord,
In this life.
To God be the glory
His power is forever known
Glory be to the Ancient One
Who sits on the throne

Believe, try and achieve,
What can be done.
There's nothing in between.
With God we will be!

By doing God's will on earth
We always know
He is with us
His love will never leave us
We are His children
Redeemed by Jesus Christ
We are His own

In Christ we have the power
Filled with Love Divine
As we follow our Lord,
In this life.
To God be the glory
His power is forever known
Glory be to the Ancient One
Who sits on the throne

In Christ we have the power
Filled with Love Divine...


Daniel 7:9-10 (ESV)

9 "As I looked,

thrones were placed,
    and the Ancient of Days took his seat;
his clothing was white as snow,
    and the hair of his head like pure wool;
his throne was fiery flames;
    its wheels were burning fire.

10 A stream of fire issued
    and came out from before him;
a thousand thousands served him,
    and ten thousand times ten thousand stood before him;
the court sat in judgment,
    and the books were opened.


Daniel 7:13-14 (ESV)

13 "I saw in the night visions,

and behold, with the clouds of heaven
    there came one like a son of man,
and he came to the Ancient of Days
    and was presented before him.

14 And to him was given dominion
    and glory and a kingdom,
that all peoples, nations, and languages
    should serve him;
his dominion is an everlasting dominion,
    which shall not pass away,
and his kingdom one
    that shall not be destroyed.
