Nothing was left unfinished,
with Christ's death upon the cross.
His sacrifice restored,
all that men had lost.
The power of death was defeated,
not just diminished.
Christ Himself stated on the cross,
"It is finished!"
We were ever climbing.
Trying to get to You.
But You seemed so far away,
despite what we could do.
Then to our amazement,
in more than we could trust.
You brought us into union,
by coming down to us.
It is a gift so precious.
Worth more than pearls or gold.
It's value never changes.
Whether it is young or old.
It begins at it's creation.
But it never has an end.
It is common for everyone,
yet unique and can ascend.
Despite rank or positions,
that one may possess,
your spirit, soul and life
make you one and you are blessed.
On the sea of God's grace,
you've sailed close to the shore.
Seeking knowledge and understanding,
desiring so much more.
Even in the shallows,
you find the wonders you seek.
But the Lord says to you,
"Set out into the deep."
The Word was revealed
and He was heard.
Lives transformed,
hearts were stirred.
Now is the time.
All are invited.
Come taste and be,
the Lord's delighted.
