THE WORK OF GOD

The work of God within a Christian soul

Exemplifies that He does all things well:

He forms without defect, and sets it whole

On His high places like a lithe gazelle.

And it is like a tree which once mature

Remains mature but does not cease to grow;

Its roots in love are gradually more sure

While boughs and branches sprout from strength below.

While is like a stone which will not shake

Since it is founded upon Christ, the Rock;

A living stone which vitally will take

Part in a structure Satan cannot shock.

Till in the glorious everlasting day

Christ formed in saints is what God will display.
