There is now no condemnation,
For those who are in Jesus Christ;
Because of having salvation,
Since Jesus had been sacrificed.

The Law of the Spirit of life,
In Christ Jesus has set us free;
As we are enduring the strife,
The sin and death no longer be.

Because what the Law could not do,
God was able to get it done;
Since the weakened flesh did pursue,
Had been accomplished through the Son.

The righteousness found in the Law,
Able to be fulfilled in us;
Cleansing the flesh of any flaw,
For making us righteous as thus.

Walk not in flesh but by the Spirit,
As you set your mind on those things;
Following as godly merit,
As to blessings that Heaven brings.

To set your mind on flesh is death,
On the Spirit is life and peace;
For having life after last breath,
Allowing your faith to increase.

The carnal mind is against God,
And is not subject to the Law;
Not able to honor and laud,
Like Adam, one will take a fall.

Those in the flesh cannot please God,
Rather you are in the Spirit;
And now no longer are you flawed,
His Kingdom you will inherit.

Remember if Christ is in you,
Although the body maybe dead;
God did spiritually renew,
From the body and blood He fed.

If the Spirit that Christ has raised,
Then His Spirit dwells within you;
And the Lord our God is praised,
The life-giving Spirit holds true.
