Sacrifice

You have lifted me up from the worlds degradation filled my soul with your Sons elation In your Son my spirit found it's life nothing here can compare to treasures of wife In love he has healed mind and heart his compassion has filled our every part Oh God bowed low fallen do I kneel that the lowly and unworthy do you seal As lambs who walk among the wolves follow the shepherd and seek his truths and beside still waters does he lead only those to whom his words do take heed Into the tabernacle do we flee for in your Son is our sanctuary examples of Truth we give our lives to partake the Truth must brake from lies Like the earth with flood waters were inundated that the influence of demons be dissipated the Truth of God falls in the latter rain knowledge that the earth will be cleansed again Downward you have sent the hearts of men so that they may see the beast within in fallen state to see oneself compared to the character of Gods wealth In your garden there was perfection the firstfruits taste of it's selection hand chosen by you to be as your Son anointed and with your sealing done Your Word oh God has become their bread and their wine of joy where Jesus led they loved not their lives unto death for you Oh Lord giver of life and breath Many are called but few are chosen as their faith is scorched choked or frozen only the seed that lands in good soil will know your Spirit Life's burning oil Through the temple curtain have they passed to the alter with sacrifices that ever last life and body are pledged to you and your words and works they do If you do not listen you cannot hear or tell when the voice of God is near through the written Word and Sons voice through them has God given mankind choice Who has the gifts of heaven known those to whom Jesus has shown though made lower than the angels be are raised much higher in eternity Oh Shepherd of God direct our course for life upon your path lays no remorse those you know their way have sealed they have laid down their lives for Truth revealed sources Matt. 10:37-39 16:25-26 John 10:11-16 I Peter 2:25 Ro.12:1-2 Apocalypse 12.11 COPYRIGHT © 2009 C Michael Miller
