I remind you of the Gospel,
You would receive in which you stand;
On proclaiming to the people,
Of what the Father does command.

And by which you are being saved,
If you hold fast unto the Word;
No longer to sin be enslaved,
And adhering what you have heard.

I delivered you as of first,
The importance what I received;
For developing in you the thirst,
About Jesus as I believed.

He was buried and rose in three days,
In accordance to the scriptures;
So that each of us who obeys,
Are able to be new creatures.

Unto the twelve He first appeared,
Then unto more than five hundred;
So that He could be then revered,
No longer could the people dread.

Many of whom were still alive,
Some of them have fallen asleep;
Till once again Christ will arrive,
For gathering up all His sheep.

As to one was untimely born,
Jesus also appeared to me;
Upon the earth where I sojourn,
With my vision that I could see.

For I am the least of all those,
Unworthy for to say the least;
Undeserving that Jesus Christ chose,
Invited to attend the feast.

Because of in my younger days,
I persecuted the church of God;
Somebody going his own ways,
Never time to honor and laud.

But by the grace of God I am,
What I am and His grace towards me;
I shall love and honor the lamb,
Because whose blood has set me free.

Whether it was I by His grace,
From what I preach so you believe;
That you will then feel His embrace,
His salvation that you receive.
