We Belong to God

We Belong to God  
composed by JOHN FLAHERTY


None of us lives as his own

And none of us dies as his own

For while we live we are responsible to God

And when we die, we die as His servants

Refrain:

For both in life and death we belong to God,

That is why Christ has died for us and come again

We shall all appear before the judgement seat of God

For it is written, "Every knee shall bend before me

And every tongue shall give praise to God"

Verse 2:

For we are sure that neither death nor life,

Nor this nor future ages nor their powers,

No height, no depth, no creature that thrives,

Will come between us and the love of Christ

Verse 3:

Give yourselves as sacrifice to God

Holy and acceptable to the Lord

Do not allow your minds to be conformed to this age,

But let your hearts be ruled by His Spirit

Verse 4:

Now not all of us shall fall asleep

But all of us are to be changed

In the twinkling of an eye,

As the last trumpet sounds,

We shall rise victorious in Christ!
