Fits tune: Ruth
('Summer Suns Are Glowing')
Based on part of Jeremiah Chapter 31
********
Hope of restoration
To each tribe, nation
You do make, do offer
Blessed we, you confer
Of your graces glorious
Reaching unto us
We have hope, assurance
You give confidence
New Covenant you made
Christ for us price paid
That we may hope sure have
Christ for us [His] life gave
Laws written in hearts, minds
Who looks there each finds
Your words, words of life true
Treasures not a few
And you our God shall be
We your people, see
Each knowing you, we share
In your love and care
And with sins forgiven
Nor remembered, when
Guilt and shame may trouble
Yet we shall not fall
'Tis your Spirit who dwells
In us, and He tells
Of Christ, He does witness
Gives us hope, does bless
So through all life's journey
Your strong hand we see
Guarding, keeping, leading
Loving even me

God's Covenant with us is paramount,
A touching hymn-poem with an uplifting message.
Second time I heard about the Holy Spirit within us today. Nicely done.
Great job.
Thanks all.
