Lyrics

Featuring Cyndi Aarrestad, nü Clarion on guitar

This was so the promise
Would be given through faith
To the people who believed in Jesus Christ

So what was the law for? 
Twas given to show that
The wrong things that we do
Are against God’s will.

And so it continued 
Until the special descendant, 
Yes He who'd been promised,
Until He came. 

The law was given through angels
Who used Moses
For a mediator 
To give the law to the people.
But a mediator is not needed 
When there's only
When there's one side, 
And God is only one.

This was so the promise
Would be given through faith
To the people who believed in Jesus Christ

This was so the promise
Would be given through faith
To the people who believed in Jesus Christ

Does this mean the law is
Is against God’s promise?
That would be true only if 
The law made us right with God.

But God did not give law 
Did not give law that can bring life. 
Instead, Scriptures show the whole world
Is bound by sin.

This was so the promise
Would be given through faith
To the people who believed in Jesus Christ

This was so the promise
Would be given through faith
To the people who believed in Jesus Christ

Instrumental

This was so the promise
Would be given through faith
To the people who believed in Jesus Christ
