Better One Died
??Malachi? ?4:5?-?6? ?NIV??
[5] “See, I will send the prophet Elijah to you before that great and dreadful day of the Lord comes. [6] He will turn the hearts of the parents to their children, and the hearts of the children to their parents; or else I will come and strike the land with total destruction.”
John the Baptist how you prepared the way
For the Lord to come fulfill the only way
Giving up His life as a ransom
In love that we might return to God
Given access to a pure heart and mind
That we could come to love all.
That seek you Lord, united in Children of God
In rememberence of who is my mother and brother.
Those who seek the true living God
And, everyone in knowing what all could become
Just in the twinkle of a eye ,
The blast of a wind to sweep away old man.
Oh, Lord how you knew we did not love you
But you loved us that we might receive
The inheritance of the living will
Brought to life by your death and resurrection
That we might die to this world only by your spirit
To resurrect this new spiritual living body
Then we shall know Lord, you are in the Father
And the Father is in you, to give God all glory
That through the Holy Spirit we come in unity
In seeing all different races have become
The Chosen people of God in your majestic ways
For many are called but few responses
??John? ?11:50? ?NIV??
[50] You do not realize that it is better for you that one man die for the people than that the whole nation perish.”
