Creed (Live In Portland, ME 2002) Lyrics
I believe in God the Father Almighty Maker of Heaven and Maker of Earth And in Jesus Christ His only begotten Son, our Lord He was conceived by the Holy Spirit Born of the virgin Mary Suffered under Pontius Pilate He was crucified and dead and buried
And I believe what I believe is what makes me what I am I did not make it, no it is making me It is the very truth of God and not the invention of any man
I believe that He who suffered was crucified, buried, and dead He descended into hell and on the third day, rose again He ascended into Heaven where He sits at God's mighty right hand I believe that He's returning To judge the quick and the dead of the sons of men
And I believe what I believe is what makes me what I am I did not make it, no it is making me It is the very truth of God and not the invention of any man
I believe it, I believe it I believe it I believe it, I believe it
I believe in God the Father Almighty Maker of Heaven and Maker of Earth And in Jesus Christ His only begotten Son, our Lord I believe in the Holy Spirit One Holy Church The communion of Saints The forgiveness of sin I believe in the resurrection I believe in a life that never ends
And I believe what I believe is what makes me what I am I did not make it, no it is making me I did not make it, no it is making me I said I did not make it, no it is making me It is the very truth of God and not the invention of any man
I believe it, I believe I believe it, I believe I believe it, I believe it I believe it, I believe it I believe it, I believe it I believe it
Written by Rich Mullins and Beaker 1 Peter 3:8-4:11, 2 Peter 1:15-21
Song Description: 'The song 'Creed' was written by Rich Mullins, an artist whose life and songs have influenced all of us in Third Day in some way or another. We started performing 'Creed' years ago in concert as a fun and energetic moment in the show. Now we've finally recorded it in its raw, live form! The message of 'Creed' is one that reminds any believer of the foundation of faith in Jesus. For anyone familiar with a more liturgical church upbringing, the song is reminiscent of the 'Apostles Creed.' We hope that this is a song that will bring people back to the basics and reignites that passion that we all remember at the start of our journey with God.' - David Carr (Third Day)
