The Holy Spirit helps when weak,
But we do not know what to pray;
As we ought to know what we seek,
As long as we trust and obey.

For the Spirit will intercede,
On groaning too deep for words;
Of the things that we truly need,
Binding us up that Scripture girds.

He who is searching in the heart,
Knowing the mind of the Spirit;
For He intercedes to impart,
The will of God to the merit.

We know that for those who love God,
All things work together for good;
For those who will honor and laud,
To His purpose as what we should.

Those He foreknew to preordain,
Change to the image of His Son;
In order that He might attain,
Be the firstborn that would be done.

Those predestined He also called,
Those whom He called He justified;
That willingly honor and laud,
Assures that they are glorified.

What then shall we say to these things,
If God is for who is against;
As to what that the Father brings,
That has caused it to be commenced.

He had spared not of His own Son,
But gave Him up for all of us;
The war over sin has been won,
All because of the Son as thus.

Who shall charge against His elect,
When it is God who justifies;
Sitting on His right to select,
Any of those He glorifies.

Any of those He will condemn,
When Jesus Christ the One who died;
Slaughtered like sheep for all of them,
An invitation not denied.
