An Offspring of Love

You are, And I am, The Body of Christ, Of an earthly man, Purchased by His sacred blood! A sinner, living in iniquity! Pure and precious in nature A presumptuous transgressor, True riches and infinite wisdom Of divine teachings, Can only be found in You! Of the Father--the Greatest King! You are the light of life And I walk in darkness To those who believe in righteousness For I'm led to falsity and deception As they reside in Your blessed peace! By the sweet-talking parsons of lies! You preached the gospel, I ignored your presence To the GEM many came to listen, For my fixation was on seen things But few are chosen! From which I gained nothing! You saw the emptiness in my heart I was touched by Your noble deeds And that You gave me invitation That I accepted Your call, gladly! To be apart of You! And later, I found the truth in You! You are in me and I'm in You! And thru the Holy Baptism, I am redeemed! And I became a true Christian. In one spirit, we share our firm conviction To those who seek the long and treacherous road towards salvation! Sharing our gifts from Heaven could change one's life, forever! For great fortune is ours, as we make life better for others And for them to be called into the Supreme Church! For truly, I will abide in the Holy Scriptures, To constantly praise and worship God, For I am, sure and without doubt, An offspring of His unselfish And everlasting Love!
