HE IS RISEN !

HE IS RISEN !

Shall we deny him our feet to climb those stairs; shall we keep back those hands that he would use; and shall we seal the lips by which he would speak the tender message to the dying soul?

Nay, rather, shall we not say:

"Take my feet, and let them be
Swift and beautiful for thee.
Take my lips and let them be
Filled with messages from thee.

"Take my hands, and let them move
At the impulse of thy love.
Take my voice, and let me sing
Always, only, for my King."

And by every movement of our bodies say to men as we pass on our pilgrim way: "I no longer live, but Christ liveth in me." So live that our lives shall be a demonstration that "Christ in us, the hope of glory," is the Indwelling Presence that guides us in that way.

GLORY POEM # 14

“COME”
Happy Are Those Invited!

A gesture made so clear,
A thought one need not fear,
A place one needs to go,
In order to all show.
A call so very clear,
A whisper in one’s ear,
So simple is this call,
To blink would be remiss for one & all.
A New Jerusalem begins its rule,
Coming down from Heaven as a Jasper Jewel,
To begin anew all that was once lost,
Our Messiah, “Christ Jesus” will begin his reign at great cost,
Choose now, in this final hour, before it is too late,
Choose life through Christ, or except your fate.
(Rev. 19:9 & Rev. 22:17)
THE SPIRIT & BRIDE SAY:  COME
