APPROACH TO THE TABERNACLE (XXV)

Another Pentland Hills walk

Upon the ark there was the mercy-seat,
Where blood was gazed on by the cherubim,
The work to meet God’s rights being complete.

Nothing is by man’s counsel or his whim
But all in answer to God’s holy rights,
Christ central there, and all complete in Him.

And all is settled for those God invites
To share with Him the place of His delights.
