Lyrics

i believe that god is sovereign over all, he alone is worthy of our praise
father, spirit, son, the holy three in one, he reigns no matter what the world may say
surely time has come for us to take a stand, to hold to our convictions without shame
opposes to the faith abound on every hand, but the gospel must be fearlessly proclaimed.
I believe that Jesus is the holy son of god, he came to earth to live a perfect life.
I believe he bled and died upon a cruel cross, and there he made the greatest sacrifice.
I believe he rose again and that he lives today, and soon he's coming back to earth again
more than just a creed this is what I believe; Jesus is the only way. this is my statement of faith!
Verse two:
i believe the bible is the word of god, given to the world to show the way
no room for compromise on its trustworthiness, it's here for us to follow and obey
there are absolutes that cannot be denied, and what is true forever shall remain
I made my choice to live for Christ the crucified, the living one who is the only way.
I believe that Jesus is the holy son of god, he came to earth to live a perfect life.
I believe he bled and died upon a cruel cross and there he made the greatest sacrifice.
I believe he rose again and that he lives today, and soon he's coming back to earth again
more than just a creed, this is what i believe: Jesus is the only way. this is my statement of faith!
spoken part:
I believe there is one true god, and Jesus Christ is his holy son
that he is the living word and that by him and thru him all things were made
i believe he was conceived by the holy spirit and born of the virgin Mary
he lived a sinless life, healed the sick, gave sight to the blind, and brought the dead back to life
i believe in the cross. that Jesus, god's sacrificial lamb shedding his blood, was crucified as an
atonement for the sins of all the world and whoever believes in him
will not parish but have everlasting life.
i believe in the resurrection. that on the third day he rose from the tomb conquering death, hell and
the grave and today he sits at the right hand of the father and that because he lives we shall live also.
i believe in the church. a harbor for souls where god is glorified, saints are edified, grace is multiplied
mercy is magnified. i believe in the holy spirit who lives within all who are saved by grace by faith.
he is our comforter, our friend, and our guide. i believe that one day Jesus will come again to claim his
own and prove once and for all that he is the king of kings and the lord of lords!


i believe he rose again and that he lives today and soon he's coming back to earth again.
more than just a creed, this is what i believe; Jesus is the only way!
this is my statement of faith! my statement of faith!

Meaning & Inspiration

“Statement of Faith” is structured as a sung confession of central Christian beliefs. It names God as Father, Spirit, and Son, then traces the confession through Christ’s sinless life, crucifixion, resurrection, present reign, and promised return. The recurring chorus makes belief more than private opinion: it becomes a public commitment to Christ as the only way. A spoken section broadens that confession to include creation, salvation, the church, and the Holy Spirit’s presence with those saved by grace through faith.

The lyric draws directly on several New Testament teachings. Its claim that the Son came, died, rose, and lives aligns with the gospel summary in 1 Corinthians 15:3-4. The declaration that Jesus is the only way closely echoes John 14:6. Its expectation of Christ’s return also corresponds with Acts 1:11, where the disciples are told that Jesus will come again. These references give the song a creed-like shape, joining doctrine with resolve to proclaim and live by the gospel without shame.
