The Father and Mother
Pleasing the giver it truly teems
Death’s hold loose from sin’s grip set free
Invisible hope feeling full
Believing the impossible
Like the greatest escape freedom
Just in this world not it’s kingdom
Chained sin never touch a plant
Passing through to one au courant
Sin will never this fruited tree
A pure wife untouched by thee
Take freely of the water of life
New new peace city without strife
Gone to prepare a place a mansion
My carpenter is my ration
Builder finisher maker’s tool
Our Father raised not a fool
Making us his holy abode
More costly than a river gold
It is not even mine given to all
Receive his love obey the call
Until we see his lovely face
A locket about your heart is grace
