BRINGING THE ARK TO JERUSALEM

 Using the fleshly notion of a cart

They sought to carry up the Ark, but failed.

When they eschewed the ways of human art

And went by God's due order they prevailed.

And what a time of holy jubilance:

Hear voice and music praise with one accord!

See David, in true fervour, play and dance

In honour of the glory of the Lord!

Often desires are good, objectives right,

But means wrong, till the way that God desires

Is followed; and He has for His delight

His Christ and those that glorious One inspires.

What joy it is to God that He should find

Those who give Christ the honour God designed.
