One Among You

but there standeth one among you, whom ye know not; 

He wakes and walk with you,
His breath gives you Life,
He fashioned you in the womb, 
He saw You soaked in your blood, 
form conception to the birth.
I give Life he whispers.

the creator of the universe, 
walk his earth in every home, 
He kept you still, though a rebel you remain,
with entreaties beckoning in love, 
Open to me Your impenitent heart,
I am the Way, the Truth and The Life. 

Your fickle frame you hold so dear, 
and bid Him come another day, 
His mercies  kept and keeps you still, 
while others as young and virile 
passing the vale into eternity 
Live Live, Bruised for thee.

Dispel your impenitent heart and seek Jesus,
see the imminence of the  doom, 
bow to the Judge and Let Him in, 
Even You can come.  
For His cross admit the worst.
"Let me in"  I'll give you rest
