JUDE – Contend for the Faith by Bro H

Verse 1 (Jude 3–4) Beloved, when I gave all diligence To write unto you of the common salvation It was needful for me to write unto you And exhort you to contend Contend for the faith once delivered Unto the saints of the Most High God For certain men crept in unawares Ungodly men, denying the Lord Turning the grace of our God into Lasciviousness and sin Marked out before to this condemnation Denying Christ within Verse 2 (Jude 5–7) I will therefore put you in remembrance Though you once knew this well How the Lord, having saved the people Afterward destroyed them as well Them that believed not in His truth Fell in the wilderness there And those who kept not their first estate Are reserved in chains of despair Even as Sodom and Gomorrah Gave themselves over to sin Going after flesh not ordained of God Suffering judgment therein Chorus Contend for the faith once delivered Hold fast to what you have known The same rebellion judged before you Still rises against the throne Contend for the faith once delivered Do not be carried away The path of the ungodly leads to judgment And they will not stand in that day Verse 3 (Jude 8–10) Likewise also these filthy dreamers Defile the flesh and deny Dominion, and speak evil boldly Of dignities they defy Yet Michael contending with the accuser Dared not bring railing word But said, “The Lord rebuke thee” Submitting judgment to the Lord But these speak evil of what they know not And what they know by sense As brute beasts in corruption walking They perish in their offense Verse 4 (Jude 11–13) Woe unto them, for they have gone In the way of Cain of old And ran greedily after Balaam For reward and for gold Perished in the gainsaying of Korah Against what God had divinely set Spots in your feasts, feeding themselves Without fear or regret Clouds without water, carried about Trees without fruit, twice dead Raging waves foaming out their shame Wandering stars, darkness ahead Bridge (Jude 14–15) Behold, the Lord comes with ten thousands Of His saints in might To execute judgment upon all To bring all deeds to light All the ungodly, all their works And all the words they’ve said Against the Lord in hardness Shall be brought before Him, and read Final Chorus Contend for the faith once delivered Stand firm in what is true The same rebellion judged before Now rises again in view Contend for the faith once delivered Do not be led astray The ungodly will be brought to judgment When the Lord comes in that day
