We believe
'We
believe' is a sung theology.
The words are a proclamation of faith, written with the
intention of
encapsulating our 11 Salvation
Army articles
of
faith within 3 verses.
While it has been sung successfully (without chorus) to
the traditional
tune of
Blaenwern, the writer's preference is for use with a
completely new and
contemporary
styled
tune composed by Wesley Carroll, which has proved to be
popular, easy
to remember, and which places proper emphasis where
required. (Download music below)
This new tune is
easy to learn, helping the
singer to read, absorb, and memorise the words - which
comes back to
the writer's aim of trying to facilitate the teaching of
doctrine
through sung
worship.
Our hope is that this offering will help church-goers to
recite and
absorb
our basic
doctrines in order to inspire confidence and reassurance
in a world
where such things are being seriously challenged....and
the
accompanying new majestic music
really has added such a huge amount to this, turning it
into an act of
worship and witness that can be easily accessed by all.
Feel free to make use of this song, and let us know how
you get on!

We believe the Holy Bible
Is Gods word, inspired, divine.
May its pages so inspire us
Love with heart, soul, strength and mind.
God Almighty, awesome Saviour;
By His work His power is known
Father, Son, and Holy Spirit,
May God's love through us be shown.,
( chorus)
We believe in the Holy Bible,
And our faith is in the Lord
We believe Christ died to save us,
Life eternal is our reward.
We believe our sin and weakness
Would keep us from God's design
Jesus died to make us worthy,
I am Gods and He is mine!
Jesus' death saves all who trust Him,
Born again through faith by grace,
Daily trusting and obeying,
'Til at last we see His face.
We believe in resurrection,
Christ will come to take us home.
Set apart a holy people,
Til our work on earth is done.
Sin and death no more may sting me
God is just, in Him we trust,
God, Creator, Judge, Redeemer
Praise His name the First and Last.
‘I
want a holy heart’
Suggested
Tune: 86‘Fewster’
1.
I want a holy
heart, dear
God, A heart from sin
kept free, A heart of
gratitude for all You did at
Calvary.
2.
To have a holy
mind I yearn, A mind both
quick and pure, To reason for
the hope I
have And in my trials
be sure.
3.
More strength I
need as on
my way New dangers I
shall meet; Keep pure my
actions and
each day Temptation I’ll
defeat.
4. I pray, dear
God, my soul to
keep Along the path You
tread, Saved by Christ’s
blood, and
Spirit filled, By Your Word now
be fed.
5.
My heart and
mind are
offered, Lord, For You to use as
best, With all my
strength and all
my soul, To live in
holiness. Phil
Layton
Feel
free to make use of this song, based
on the most important commandment: Jesus
said: “Love the Lord your God with all your heart
and with all your soul
and with all your mind and with all your strength.” Mark
12:30
Great
and true are Your ways
A
new Gospel Song based on Revelation (15:3-4) - The
Song of Moses and the Lamb - and entitled 'Great and
true are Your ways'
The music and words are by Wes Carroll and Phil Layton
respectively.
You can read the context of this Scripture passage here,
and the music encapsulates perfectly the majesty,
respect, and awe of the worship portrayed therein.

be lifted in praise and worship as you engage in this
offering.
