Lyrics Petra - Sacred Trust

1) You never tried to win more secular appeal
And water down Your message with a slightly different feel,
You never tried to be politically correct
Or skirt around the issue attempting to connect

You spoke the truth in love so faithfully,
You expect no less from me

[CHORUS]

It's a sacred trust that You gave to us
To take Your Word into all the world.
It's a sacred trust that You gave to us
The message of salvation and Your love

2) You never shied away from critical debate
Or beat around the bushes when discussing human fate,
You weren't ashamed to tell them who Your Father was,
Never ran from persecution like human nature does

You prayed for all believers on Your knees
Then you handed us the keys

[CHORUS]

[BRIDGE]

You're trusting us to be bold,
The story has to be told
To every nation and tongue,
Young and old!
I'm gonna shout from the hill,
How could I ever be still?
I'm gonna let the chips fall
Where they will

You spoke the truth in love so faithfully
You expect no less from me

[CHORUS]
