I believe in the story never old,
I believe it!
I believe in the Savior long foretold,
I believe it!
I believe He’s more precious far than gold,
I believe it!
I am saved by believing on His name.

I am saved by believing on His name,
I am saved, for His Word is just the same,
’Tis the same whosoever,
For His love changeth never,
I am saved by believing on His name.
I believe in the tidings of His birth,
I believe it!
I believe in the song of peace on earth,
I believe it!
I believe ’twas a time of joy and mirth,
I believe it!
I am saved by believing on His name.

I believe that the shepherds heard the song,
I believe it!
I believe that they saw the heav’nly throng,
I believe it!
I believe that the glory shone around,
I believe it!
I am saved by believing on His name.
Refrain
I believe that the wise men saw His star,
I believe it!
I believe that they followed from afar,
I believe it!
I believe that they found the Savior there,
I believe it!
I am saved by believing on His name.

I believe that He came to seek and save,
I believe it!

I believe it!
I am saved by believing on His name.
