Covenant Communings

Tune: Rosefield

('Bread of heaven, on thee we feed')

Hebrews 10 v.12-18

********

Christ, when offered self did give

Sacrifice that we may live

Offered once, sufficient be

That we can salvation see

Now sat down at Father's side

In high heaven He does reside

 

He sits, prays, and intercedes

For our forgiveness he pleads

Awaiting expectantly

'Til enemies [His] footstool be

There placed form beneath His feet

Separating chaff from wheat

 

For by that one offering

That [to] the Father Christ did bring

Perfected, amde whole, are they

That are sanctified, who say

'Christ has lived, died, rose for me

Salvation in Him I see'

 

For the Spirit witnesses

A foretaste of heavenly bliss

That this is the covenant

Which God to us He has sent

That the Lord His laws would write

And put in hearts, minds aright

 

And too sins, iniquities

He would not upon them seize

But remember them no more

Not guilt, sin, nor any flaw

So now here is remissing (remission)

For sin no more offering

 

No more offering can be

For Christ has done it all, see

Come, avail of body, blood

Spiritually cleansing flood

And the Spirit in each one

Who trusts themselves to the Son

    Very beautiful your poem. It is very comforting for us to think that we have no sin thus we can be free like children of God playing happily on his garden. Thanks for writing about God.
