What are the lyrics to Morris Chapman's 1986 song from the artist recording Since God Is For Us?

Since God Is For Us - Morris Chapman & Lanny Wolfe Beloved now we are, the sons of God Adopted by His Blood, we've been redeemed, We've been made joint heirs with Jesus, And to reign as priests and kings, What do we say to these things? If God is for us, Who can be against us, If God Is On our side, how can we be denied? In all these things we are, More than conquerors thru Jesus Christ our Lord, And nothing can separate us, from the love of God. We're told that God is working Everything for our good If we love him and we're called to do His will Though the enemy tries to harm us, And steal the song our hearts would sing, Tell me what do we say to these things? If God is for us, Who can be against us, If God Is On our side, how can we be denied? In all these things we are, More than conquerors thru Jesus Christ our Lord, And nothing can separate us, from the love of God. Rejoice and triumph, even in the time of trouble For nothing can compare to the Glory that's in store Though hated for His sake we stand justified by faith We'll be Glorified with Him forever more. If God is for us, (tell me now) Who can be against us, If God Is On our side, how can we be denied? In all these things we are, More than conquerors thru Jesus Christ our Lord, And nothing can separate us, from the love of God. In all these things we are, More than conquerors thru Jesus Christ our Lord, And nothing can separate us, from the love of God. Oh no nothing can separate us, from the love of God. Woh yes nothing can separate us, from the love of God.

What keeps us from connecting with God and knowing him personally?

It is our own mind and ego, the ME, that is our biggest enemy. It makes us believe we are this body. It makes us crave, and we take what we crave to our grave. Because we desire material happiness, we are unable to realize we are not the body, not the mind, not the ego. It is our own mind and ego that makes us a monkey, jumping from thought to thought. It disturbs and distracts us, it disrupts our connection with God. The ego makes us believe that God is separate from us, when in reality, God lives within the temple of our heart. The mind bombards us with thoughts, together the mind and ego create a barrier that stops us from connecting to God, not only knowing God but realizing God. In reality, we are all God particles that are surrounded by bone and skin, but we don't realize the power that is within.

What is the only real antidote to human pride and scripture to support the answer?

Human pride is something that many people struggle with on a daily basis. Getting rid of pride is a long process that takes a lot of work. Once the Lord shows you what true humility is, you must fight as hard as you can to rid yourself of the pride in a constant battle. However, God does not require us to fight alone. 1 John 5:3-4 says "This is love for God: to obey his commands. And his commands are not burdensome, for everyone born of God overcomes the world." Although pride is very frustrating, God will help us through it if we truly desire and seek his help. Remember, God is so much greater than we are and we have no right to think that we are amazing when we just look at his glory. Isaiah 10:15 says "Does the ax raise itself above him who swings it, or the saw boast against him who uses it? As if a rod were to wield him who lifts it up, or a club brandish him who is not wood!"

Who can separate us from the love of GOD?

That;'s a quote from the book of Romans. To discover more about God's everlasting love for us, try reading the whole book.
