The Ark of God upheld the Mercy‑seat
Where stretched the pinions of the cherubim:
From here the word of God, and men, can meet
Since God had found all suitable to Him.
All was of gold; and all God's righteousness
Set forth for men in mercy may unfold.
God has secured an avenue to bless
From this place forth: since blood was on the gold.
God's rights in mercy have been fully met
Because the blood of Jesus has sufficed
To satisfy the heart of God and set
Him free to speak to every man in Christ.
Eternally God has before His sight
The blood of Him in whom He has delight.
Aberfoyle; four from the bridge, and one of the bridge.
Amen, David!
ReplyDeleteMy fav stanzas are, "God has secured an avenue to bless
ReplyDeleteFrom this place forth: since blood was on the gold." and "Eternally God has before His sight The blood of Him in whom He has delight."
Verse is truly beautiful, as those who love to read and write it know. Rhyming verse that is not trite is not easy to write. You have excelled here. Thanks for sharing and God bless! Sandi
