Divine Transformation
Divine Transformation
Turn away from man’s imperfections
Behold Jesus instead
Divine transformation takes place
The character of Christ lies ahead
For it is by beholding
We become changed
Transformed into His likeness
From sin’s damage salvaged
Divine transformation
Requires the Spirit at work
Our willingness to surrender
Removal of each sinful mark
We take on Christ’s character
As it overlays our own
His glory shines through us
From His precious, heavenly crown
Some call it sanctification
This process of being transformed
Being restored to His character
By the Holy Spirit performed
We must depend upon
God’s power for this change
Divine transformation
To the carnal mind so strange
For this transformation process
Our hearts must be open
Willing to trust God
For a new heart to fashion
So that we can witness
To others of His power
That they too may behold Him
For this world’s final hour.
