For this wondrous blessed adventure
My faith revisits divine stones’ feature
Commencing from great Creator’s gesture
for Eden garden’s functional posture.
Toward gem stones’ trip showcasing beauty
I behold them displayed with dignity
Adorning high priest of integrity
Twelve of them sparkled midst obscurity.

While triumphing in His gracious kingship.
Finally, my heart sings with blest praise-delight
Enthralled by precious stones*** before my sight
New heaven and new earth radiantly bright
Where Jesus Christ is forever the light!

**1Peter 2:5 Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ.
