Our worship in reality
|
|
| 1. | Our worship in reality |
| | Is typified in Moses' law: |
| | With Canaan's produce, rich and sweet, |
| | All Israel came and worshipped God. |
| 2. | 'Tis thus that we must come today |
| | To worship in reality: |
| | When we bring Christ as produce sweet |
| | God fully satisfied will be. |
| 3. | The worship that God so desired |
| | Was not with manna sent from heav'n, |
| | But from their labor on the land |
| | The people's gifts to God were giv'n. |
| 4. | Thus, what God go desires today. |
| | Are not the miracles so grand, |
| | But daily, normal life in Christ, |
| | As worship, produce of the land. |
| 5. | The manna came from God alone; |
| | The produce, from man's work on Him. |
| | So all our worship now must come |
| | >From mingling with the Lord within. |
| 6. | As day by day we live in Christ, |
| | And take Him as our everything, |
| | The produce of the land comes forth |
| | And worship true to God we'll bring. |
| 7. | The manna, Lord, no more we'll seek, |
| | But Christ in all we will apply; |
| | Then we will have some produce sweet, |
| | Thine own dear heart to satisfy. |
