Man's Creator has a purpose
|
|
| 1. | Man's Creator has a purpose |
| | For our being here on earth. |
| | In His image we're created, |
| | To express His rule on earth. |
| | But man fell to Satan's tempting; |
| | Thus God's goal was hid from view. |
| | Still our God will have His Kingdom, |
| | For His Son will see it through. |
| 2. | Jesus Christ will get His Kingdom |
| | In spite of Satan and his plans; |
| | He's getting something real and solid |
| | By growing in the hearts of man. |
| | It's nothing like religion teaches, |
| | "You have to wait until you die"- |
| | For the Kingdom Christ is building, |
| | Is here on earth before our eyes. |
| 3. | His Son, Jesus, is our Savior. |
| | Once in human form He came. |
| | Now as the Spirit he can enter |
| | As the breath of life to man. |
| | As a seed within our spirit |
| | Christ takes root and starts to grow, |
| | Spreading in our inmost being |
| | Till His life we come to know. |
| 4. | Time is short, oh, brothers hear it, |
| | Christ is longing for His Bride. |
| | We can hasten His returning, |
| | Simply by the growth in life. |
| | No more struggling, no more striving, |
| | Simply turn to Christ within. |
| | See the seed begin to blossom, |
| | Growing fully into Him. |
| 5. | Jesus Christ will get His Kingdom |
| | By growing in a normal way, |
| | It is not an instant transformation; |
| | This growth goes on from day to day, |
| | This seed of life is all-inclusive- |
| | Everything we'll ever need; |
| | Yes, our God's eternal purpose |
| | Is within this precious seed. |
