Offered Relationship From God

You’re our Creator, and we’re Your creation Thanks for reaching down to us for our salvation To offer us Your relationship of sweet heaven’s jubilation… Now, we’re heading toward Your set glorious transformation. You’re our Potter, and we’re Your clay* Thanks for designing us according to Your way To shape us up by Your fellowship we can experience everyday… Now, we’re living as vessels that honor You while in Your plan we stay. You’re our Master, and we’re Your servants Thanks for calling us by Your immutable covenants To include us for Your partnership beyond reward-grants… Now, we’re laboring with contentment against worldliness and vanity-wants. You’re our Head, and we’re Your body** Thanks for cleansing us from sinfulness’ malady To perfect us in Your workmanship with Your truth so sturdy… Now, we’re striving to be holy as we wait for Your coming, ever ready. You’re our Leader, and we’re Your followers Thanks for enabling us to obey You and Your orders To teach us along Your discipleship upward maturity towers… Now, we’re living by faith with the conviction to be biblical defenders. You’re our Vine and we’re Your branches Thanks for upholding us midst stormy glitches To nurture us with Your stewardship that spiritually enriches… Now, we’re bearing fruits by Your love, grace and mercy’s touches. You’re our Shepherd and we’re Your sheep*** Thanks for delivering us out from death-valley’s deep To carry us to Your friendship where our hearts You safely keep… Now, we’re dwelling in Your pasture, verily blessed, till we do sleep. *Isaiah 64:8 But now, O LORD, thou art our father; we are the clay, and thou our potter; and we all are the work of thy hand. **Ephesians 5:23 For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body. ***John 10:14 I (Jesus Christ) am the good shepherd, and know my sheep, and am known of mine.
