Poem
DO YOU KNOW GOD? Do you know God? Do you really know God? Do you know the Light That shines brighter than the sun? Do you know the voice of many waters Or the eyes of fiery fire? Have you seen the lightning The voices of worship and thunder? Did you see the seven lamps; All, the seven-fold Spirit of God? Did you notice the twenty four elders, With gold crowns on their heads, Sitting on twenty four thrones round The throne of Love? Hark, the worship of the four living beasts Saying ‘Holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty, who was Is and is to come’ See the worship of the twenty four Falling down and casting crowns All praising the worthy Lamb of God. See the Lamb that sits on the throne As of jasper and carnelian See the emerald rainbow round the throne See the crystal clear sea of glass Beneath the worthy feet of the Lamb Watch as the double edged sword comes from His mouth See the glory of the Word. See the Lamb in form of flesh See the Lamb tempted by men See this Lamb scorned and rejected By the cursed, condemned and doomed. See God’s Lamb scourged to the bone See His flesh stick to the whips See the mockery of the crown of thorns See the pain and the Blood He dripped See Him carrying a tree in this condition See Him fall; vulnerable to pain. Oh God’s Lamb left at man’s mercy See Him stripped of every cloth See Him nailed through to the Cross See Him hanging naked on the Cross See men spit and scoff at Him See God’s Lamb in need of water See Him given vinegar with a sponge. See the Father turn away from His begotten See the Son cry, more helpless than a babe See God fall into the hands of death See His body wrapped like the corpse of man See God laid in the tomb of a man Dead for three days and alive on the third day. What’s the union between these two The King on the throne and a dead man in a tomb? What’s the closeness between these two The glory of Heaven and the darkness of hell? But the King who sits on the throne Became the dead man in the tomb And the eternal King of glory Went to the very depths of hell Not on a tour or show off But an expression of His eternal love for us. So again I ask; do you know God? Do you really know Love? Do you know the Love That shines brighter than the sun? Do you know the Man of many wonders Or the Lamb that died on the Cross?
