Our Life-Light

by Barbara Pierce

Father God, our Life-Light, You have shown us how to pray.
Your Word has made it clear to us, it must be the ‘Jesus way.’
Help us to be humble before You, and strive to emulate the Lamb,
Who mercifully intercedes for all the needs of man.

He left this world and sent the Spirit to take us by the hand,
To befriend us, guide us, lead us, and to help us understand.
To make known the desires of Jesus to all who honour Him,
And reveal to us the evil in our God-rejecting world of sin.

The goal He set for all His church, is to become one heart and mind,
Jesus in us and the Father in Jesus, mature and unified.
Then, His word fulfilled - may the faithless see - the evidence they crave
And fall prostrate before His glory, pleading to be saved.

Jesus’ friends must also be disciples, we know that from His Word,
And watchfully and constantly, we must let our prayers be heard.
But only those who are ‘truth sanctified’ can serve the Great ‘I Am’
And in Heaven, witness Jesus’ splendour-
His Father’s gift to Him - before the world began.
