Redeemed One: A Poem

REDEEMED ONE - A Poem

REDEEMED ONE

REDEEMED ONE LOOK OFF AND SEE

AUTHOR OF FAITH COMPLETE FOR THEE

THE PATH OF FAITH, AND PRECIOUSLY

SECURE THY SOUL ETERNALLY.

REDEEMED ONE LOOK THROUGH AND SEE

ALL THAT HIS WORD REVEALS TO THEE

OF HIM WHO DIED IN LOVE DIVINE

THAT HE MIGHT  CALL THEE “WHOLLY MINE.”

REDEEMED ONE LOOK BEYOND AND SEE

HIS PRESENCE GRACE ETERNITY,

FULLNESS OF JOYS, UNCLOUDED BLISS,

PLEASURES REPLETE THY SOUL CARESS.

REDEEMED ONE LOOK IN AND SEE

WHAT HIS SALVATION WROUGHT FOR THEE,

FORGIVEN SINS, A NATURE CHANGED,

HIS LIFE IMPARTED, HEAVEN GAINED.

REDEEMED ONE LOOK BACK AND SEE

JESUS, GODS’ SON ON CALVARY,

HUNG UP ‘TWIXT HEAVEN AND EARTH FOR THEE,

THAT THOU MIGHTEST LIVE ETERNALLY.

REDEEMED ONE LOOK UP AND SEE

THE SAVIOUR CLEAVE THE SKY FOR THEE,

WITH ANGEL VOICE AND TRUMP OF GOD

HE’LL TAKE THEE HOME TO HIS ABODE.

REDEEMED ONE LOOK UP AND SEE

THE LORD HIMSELF DESCEND FOR THEE,

CAUGHT UP TO MEET HIM IN THE AIR,

WITH ALL HIS OWN HIS THRONE TO SHARE.

REDEEMED ONE LOOK AROUND AND SEE

CREATION ALL SO BLESSED, WITH THEE,

ALL SUBJECT TO GODS’ LOVELY SON,

ALL OWN THE NAME THAT HE HAS WON.
