Romans 10 is Paul’s clearest statement of the gospel: confess Jesus as Lord, believe God raised him from the dead, and you will be saved.

Lyrics
Brothers my heart’s desire and my prayer to God is for Israel That they may be saved For I testify about them that they have a zeal for God But not according to knowledge
For being ignorant of God’s righteousness and seeking to establish their own righteousness They didn’t subject themselves to the righteousness of God For Christ is the fulfillment of the law for righteousness To everyone who believes For Moses writes about the righteousness of the law The one who does them will live by them
But the righteousness which is of faith says this Don’t say in your heart Who will ascend into heaven That is to bring Christ down Or Who will descend into the abyss That is to bring Christ up from the dead But what does it say
The word is near you in your mouth and in your heart That is the word of faith which we preach Because if you will confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord And believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead You will be saved
For with the heart one believes resulting in righteousness And with the mouth confession is made resulting in salvation For the Scripture says Whoever believes in him will not be disappointed For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek
For the same Lord is Lord of all and is rich to all who call on him For Whoever will call on the name of the Lord will be saved How then will they call on him in whom they have not believed And how will they believe in him whom they have not heard How will they hear without a preacher
And how will they preach unless they are sent As it is written How beautiful are the feet Of those who preach the Good News of peace Who bring glad tidings of good things
But they didn’t all listen to the glad news For Isaiah says Lord who has believed our report So faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of God But I say didn’t they hear Yes most certainly
Their sound went out into all the earth their words to the ends of the world But I ask didn’t Israel know First Moses says I will provoke you to jealousy with that which is no nation I will make you angry with a nation void of understanding
