GLORY

It is the beauty and excellence

Of a character with dignity…

It’s to admire and to praise

A worthy greatness we can see.

It’s an honor and distinction

Which draws our attention too;

It’s an infinite perfection

With integrity pure and true.

All glory goes to God Almighty

For His infinite worth and grace;

His timeless perfection and sheer greatness

With a love we’re to embrace.

All glory is seen in creation

So meticulous and perfect indeed;

It reveals the hand of our creator

When we open our eyes and take heed.

God’s glory is revealed in healing

When He sovereignly heals diseases,

And by faith we always pray and ask

Knowing He has mercy on whom He pleases.

When Jesus healed the sick

And performed many miracles too,

It was to reveal the Father’s glory

And HIs majestic power through and through.

When Lazarus was raised from the dead

It was not a sickness unto death,

But to reveal the glory of God

Through resurrection revealing God’s breadth.

When Jesus approached the blind man

Many questioned the man’s sin,

Or his parents’ for being born blind

Since the reason was not underpinned.

But Jesus made it very clear

That neither he nor his parents transgressed,

But that the works of God should be revealed in him

Showing God’s glory at His best.

The greatest revelation of glory

Was Jesus Christ’s resurrection,

And ascension to the right hand of the Father

Indicating His pure perfection.

We’re to be transformed from glory to glory

By the Spirit of the Lord;

When we’re reconciled to God indeed

And renewed by His word.

If we live and believe in Him

Although we’ll eventually face death,

We’ll be resurrected unto eternal life

To enjoy true peace and rest.
