Signed in the blood of Jesus

Sealed by the Holy Spirit

The promise of the Father

Delivered by God: the Triune edict.

Immersed in the blood of Jesus

Born again in the Holy Spirit

A new creation of God the Father

A walk in faith our daily habit.

Never to be taken lightly

Any promise of the Father

And so the Holy Spirit

Takes care of this Triune matter.

Must be accomplished at all cost

Hence the blood of the Lamb

The redemption of the believer

That trusts in the Divine Plan.

Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ

And you will be saved

Walk daily by the Holy Spirit

That’s how we are to behave.

Signed, sealed and delivered

The promised is as good as done

It’s written in the past tense

That with assurance we can run.

No doubt that God will deliver

Assured that the Spirit will lead

Washed in the blood of Jesus

In him we are godly seed.

Yes there will be times of struggle

But be not the pessimistic kind

That sees everything as negative

And seldom with a positive mind.

“Trials come to make us strong”

Should be the Christian’s outlook

As we follow the lead of the Spirit

And stay immersed in God’s Book.

  

For God has given us a manual

That shows us the way we should take

That is to keep our eyes of Jesus

And to the Spirit obediently relate.

Signed, sealed and delivered

We don’t have any cause to doubt

That God will keep His promise

The promised to bring us out.

Yes! out of this Egypt-like land

To a land that He has prepared

Where one day He’ll surely take us

To live with Him over there.

So like the mail service of old

When delivery of the mail was assured

We are signed, sealed and delivered

For God can do infinitely more.

From anything Satan can contrive

To frustrate, to mislead or thwart

We are signed, sealed and delivered

With the Trinity as our Escort.

Take courage my brother, my sister

We will make the heavenly shore

God will ensure we set eyes on Jesus

The one whom we adore.

So praise and glory to the Father

Praise and glory to the Son

Praise and glory to the Spirit

Signed, sealed and deliver, it is done.
