Life To the Dead
Life To the Dead
“as it is written, “I have made you a father of many nations” in the presence of Him whom he believed—God, who gives life to the dead and calls those things which do not exist as though they did;” Rom 4:17 NKJV
God alone can give life to the dead,
And call what does not exist into existence.
He is the Creator of all—
Works miracles with unformed substance.
He makes known the end from the beginning,
From ancient times what is still to come.
He prepared for all an inheritance
Before He placed us in the womb.
God never ceases His work divine.
He works out all things in harmony.
According to His intricate plans,
He manifests creation’s symphony.
Where once there was void,
He created the earth in its universe;
Gave the seas their boundaries
And the rivers their due course.
Where death reigns temporarily,
God gives life to the dead.
Where dreams exist in the mind,
He creates reality instead.
All man’s accomplishments
Bear the signature of heaven above.
That’s why pride is so foolish;
It denies the Father’s provision and love.
Where God is concerned,
Nothing is too difficult.
All obstacles to us,
Are a means His power to exalt.
Where man’s breath has vanished,
He can restore life once again.
He gives Life To The Dead—
Gifts eternity to His bondsmen.
