The Kingdom’s Invite
The only reason that we wake
is for God’s Glory, for all Love’s sake.
Not to linger, nor to grieve,
in the shadows of life’s mortal weave.
We joy in the beauty, we soak in the Light,
The Cause that makes us walk upright.
For all endure that pierced the night,
His Love does shine with The Kingdom’s invite.
The reason bearing all heart’s care
unearths from wearing mercy’s share,
Not to hold, to keep, or to own,
but Lord, to let such Love be shown.
We joy in the Beauty, we soak in the Light,
The Cause that makes us walk upright.
For all endure that pierced the night,
His Love does shine with The Kingdom’s invite.
Here from the blessing in the Spirit of Grace
Love brightens the day, in the dawn’s birthplace.
We rise in joy and wake to walk free,
called by His Glory from the forever decree.

In this you rejoice, though now for a little while, if necessary, you have been grieved by various trials,
