VI. VISION ISRAEL
VISION
ISRAEL
In the Spirit
Out of the world
In the Holy Spirit
Out of the fallen world
Virgin daughter Israel
Pure, holy and true
Faithful to the One who loves her
Tried and tested
Thoroughly proven true
To the One who sees the end ftom the beginning
Proven true as purest silver
As silver heated in an earthen furnace
Seven times hotter ftom generation to generation
Century after century
From the ancient days
And the ancient chosen few
An unbroken cord of purest gold
The chosen people, the chosen city
The power and purpose of God who cares
The sovereign King who sat a the flood
Fire eyes gaze upon the earth
They penetrate exposing every heart, every thought
Holy One of Israel, God the Lord
Throne destined for Jerusalem
The place chosen eternally
A people prepared, as a new creation
Saved ftom destructive earth
Often pulled ftom the fire
The last stroke of despair and emptiness
And cruel loneliness that stalks the ravaged earth;
Saved, cleansed and washed
All filth removed
Only lasting beauty as clothes
Truth revealed, truth on display...continued
