The Third Degree

The Lord command a little
Higher degree of conscious
       In us
   -------
To heed the word insistently
And Amen to the Cross
To service his need
What ever the cost
          -----
To live for-ever
To receive everlasting life
Forbidding stench and strief
Ths is a gift from Jesus
He paid the price
To profess the word
       ------
Enter into a covenant
To bless a new land
With a new government
          ------
The land of a new government
The government of the Lord
The land for which We stand
This is the way is was ordained
From the start

                 GF
