GRACE FOR GRACE

 

If the world's currencies were combined 

To pay the price of my sin so great

Still for the wages-death will I repine 

Grace for grace never to be ingrate 

Found its way into my poor heart

Restored God's light never to depart

All dues paid by the worldwide saviour 

Bringing mankind into God's favour 

That all may share with his neighbour

What only God's grace can afford

Not by man's finite and feeble effort

For the Living Spirit bears us record 

Changed by grace to live and pray

Revived by grace the Spirit to obey

That we may no longer be a prey

To him whose territory we assay

Subduing the flesh day by day

Grace for grace to tread the Holy highway.

✍🏽 S. Olumide David (Beloved)

Filtering rays of sunshine,

Brighten up my day,

My heart swells with hope and pride,

Keen for the glories coming my way...

I shall sing hallelujah all the way

My soul and spirit love to dwell

I'll cross the bridge

I'll go up yonder

GLIMPSE OF HEAVEN

 I see the reflection of my happiness,

In your eyes,

Picture perfect,

Like a bouquet of posies,

Like a sky full of sunshine...

Defining my journey aforetimes,

Prologue of heaven,

Heaven on Earth.

I hear the reverb of choruses,

Hallelujah over there,

Someday I'll be there,

There my heart belongs,

No moth nor destroys,

Like a gold tried in fire...

The dawn of anaphoras,

How joy rankshifts sorrows

To dust someday I'll bid farewell

I see the transparency of my heart,

In your words,

Pure  purity,

With a blink, past becomes histories

I'll be transformed with a glimpse,

Just a blink, I am home

To dust someday I'll bid farewell

In you I love to dwell

My home I destroy for a better home,

The cross I built upon

For a better home I'll live,

To the dust when I'll bid farewell
