Paul poses some rhetorical questions to show that our new position in Christ should lead not to greater sin but to greater obedience to God.

LYRICS
What shall we say?
Are we to continue in sin that grace may abound?
Will grace increase if we unleash transgressions unbound?
By no means!
What shall we say?
Can we who died to sin still give it our lives?
Or do you not know from death you rose when you were baptized?
You were baptized in Christ.
You have died to sin
And were raised with Him
To walk in newness of life.
What shall we say?
Is sin to govern our lives since Law has no claim?
And now that grace has Law replaced can sin still remain?
By no means!
Thanks be to God,
For we who were slaves once to sin,
Have become free, free from sin,
Have become slaves to God, slaves to Him,
Have become free from sin.
Oh, thanks be to God,
For the wages of sin is death,
But the free, free gift of God
Is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
O praise the Lord!
I’m free from sin!
Sing forth His praise!
I live for Him!
But what shall we say?
“Why do I still sin?”

Beautiful hymns from the Psalms. Sandra and her team of musicians make inspiring, very, very emotionally motivating and righteous music. A joy and an inspiration to hear, time and time again. God be praised! Estelle
