One Faith by Michael Card & John Michael Talbot

Here is a song that Bethlehem recently showed me. To us is sounds very majestic and powerful, just as the words are.



Here are the lyrics:

He is a good shepherd, He's laid down His life for His sheep
So out of many nations He's gathered one fold and one faith
And He has built His church� on the rock foundation of faith
On apostles and prophets who shepherd the people in His place

Chorus:
There is one faith, one hope, and one baptism, one God and Father of all
There is one church, one body, one life in the Spirit, now given so freely to all

He gave to Simon Peter and to all of the twelve
The keys to the Kingdom so darkness would never prevail
But some of the shepherds have pastured themselves on their sheep
So he has come out against them and scattered His people of faith

Chorus

Bridge:
In good pasture He will shepherd His people
On the mountain top He feeds His sheep
He will lead the poor and afflicted
To the prisoner He'll bring release

Chorus

But He'll not forsake His people, He'll claim His sheep for His own
He'll send out His word to the nations, regather His people back home
For He is a good shepherd, He's laid down His life for His sheep
So out of many nations He's gathered one fold and one faith
