From This Place - the Lord's Poem

The Heavens
The Earth,
Christ Jesus
He’s First.

The Stars
The Sun,
The Creator,
The One.

His Mercy,
His Love,
Illuminating
The Above.

The Promise
Through grace,
He restores
From this place.

Without fear
Without doubt,
And redemption
Comes about.

Through belief
Through trust,
lie wisdom
within the dust.

From Love
From grace,
We are redeemed
From This Place!
