Musings from Today

A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in settings of silver
GIVE ME, NOW, HEAVENLY THOUGHTS
How precious are Your thoughts to me
How vast is the sum of them
Thoughts of heaven and the hope of glory
Washed white and crowned with a diadem

"Come up here," "Come up higher"
"Come and see," there's much to behold
A throne surrounded by a heavenly choir
A sea of glass and streets of gold

A spirit of wisdom and revelation
Increase my faith in things unseen
Fill my heart with Your contemplations
Show me Your glory and transform me


BORN AGAIN BY THE WORD OF GOD
Empty philosophy and worldly wisdom
Fire extinguished by the shield of faith
Truth is the manner of the eternal kingdom
Lies are vanguished by the word of grace

Blind, deceived, ignorant, distracted
Shepherdless sheep, wandering astray
Called, gathered, taught and led
He left 99, He sought, He saved

He became unto us wisdom from God
And the truth of God made manifest
The Bread of Life, the Son of God
The Light of the World, the Word made flesh

His words are spirit and they are life
By which the dead are quickened and souls refreshed
So, "Come unto Me," saith the Christ
"Come unto Me and you will find rest"

..."And we know that the Son of God is come, and hath given us an understanding, that we may know Him that is true, and we are in Him that is true, even in His Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life." (1 Jn 5:20)
