Before His Presence

 

Before His Presence

 

He asked us to come

Opening wide the door

All we must do is enter in

Then things will not be as before

 

Nothing between—

The Gate is no longer closed

Love’s Sacrifice paid the price

The Father’s heart disclosed

 

Enter with thanksgiving

Praise God for all His ways

Serve the LORD with gladness

Humbly voice His praise

 

For His Presence will not leave us

Nor forsake us

For ever

 

**********

 

Psalms 100:4-5

 

Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with praise: be thankful unto him, and bless his name.

For the LORD is good; his mercy is everlasting; and his truth endureth to all generations.

The Promise for a Broken Nation

 

Anyone who had paid attention

Knew what the motto declared

They were one nation under God

His fingerprints were everywhere

 

 

“In God we trust”

A simple humble phrase

Yet so forgotten

In these latter days

 

A Nation marred in the hands of the Potter

 

But that is the hope!

The Potter still holds the clay

His work was not finished

He can still make a way

 

Look to God

Forsake the sin

Humbly pray

He will work again

 

“…so he made it again another vessel, as seemed good to the potter to make it.”

 

A Promise for a broken Nation—if we will have it

Jeremiah 18:1-12
