Tune: Franconia
('Blest are the pure in heart')
Ephesians 1 v.13-14
*********
In Christ you too trusted
By God you to Him led
Heard gospel of your salvation
Open to each nation
After that you believed
The Spirit you received
In Christ, by the Spirit you sealed
Promise to you revealed
The Spirit, down payment
Earnest, first instalment
Of our inheritance until
God's purpose shall fulfil
Will be to redeem full
Purchased possession all
Purchased by Christ's life, that we be
To God's praise and glory

Another good one Orchi you are just bursting with Hymns now good to see you back to this my friend
Thank you SB. Yet it's often one per day. I've used up reserve poems, or at least fairly recent ones.
You are most welcome Orchi no problem they only allow one per day anyway
We all need a lift in Oct.
You've managed it.
Thank you P. I was very cheerful. One said 'Oh I hate December; so depressing'. I replied 'Cheer up; January will be worse!' heehee. Then the person punched me on the nose. lol.
BREAKING NEWS FROM WCAT! Popeyeus Glug Maximus Solus has announced a hostile takeover of the Vatican! The cast of the Baters has been appointed to the College of Cardinals, Ol' Tom is knitting the papal vestments, and Olive Oyl has demanded an independent investigation into missing communion spinach! The Holy See has declined to comment...but are now calling themselves the Holy Glug. Why? WCAT! 🤣 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛
Thank you T. lol. They get in everywhere, that Popeye & Co. lol.
