Partakers of the Divine Nature

2 Peter · Progressive House

[Intro - counted pickup] One faith, equally precious One righteousness in our God and Saviour [Verse 1 - each line adds a layer] Power has already placed within reach All that belongs to life and godliness Through knowing the One who called us Into glory and virtue Great promises open like windows Corruption loses its stale air [Refrain - ascending] Through what He has promised We partake of the divine nature We escape the world's decay of lust [Verse 2 - cumulative] Faith, take virtue by the hand Virtue, walk with knowledge Knowledge, learn the rein of temperance Temperance, stay beside patience Patience, grow into godliness Godliness, make room for brotherly kindness Brotherly kindness, opened fully into charity [Interlude] [Verse 3 - reduced pulse] Let these things live and abound And knowing Christ will bear its fruit The one who cannot see this path Has forgotten the cleansing behind him Look again, remember, be diligent [Refrain - full register] Make calling and election sure Practice the road beneath your feet You shall not stumble from it And an abundant entrance will open Into the everlasting kingdom Of Jesus Christ our Lord and Saviour [Outro] Grace and peace multiply As every step becomes love
