GOD'S DWELLING

And God shows He desires to dwell

Among His people Israel

Between the cherubim;

The Lord's desire is to reside

In His own house, and there abide

In settings fit for Him.

Jehovah shows His dwelling should

Be centred on an Ark of wood

That's overlaid with gold;

A house that's suited to God's plan

Must have its centre in that Man

Whose worth cannot be told.

And each of the acacia boards

Upon its silver stands affords

Some structure for the tent;

Men fashioned after Christ provide

The dwelling where God may abide,

Eternally content.
