THE
WORDS CAME AND
I
WROTE THEM DOWN
By Pastor Max Solbrekken, D.D.
Several years ago
as was sitting at the kitchen table, suddenly words began coming into
my mind in rhyme. I took a pen and jotted then down on paper. Here
they are:
Victory
in Jesus, my Saviour forever
His
promise is, 'I'll forget you never'
Born
of the Spirit, I am His very own
My
sins all forgiven by His Blood alone
His
love so amazing, His mercy divine
He
took me and made His Father mine
I
was a delinquent, so far from His fold
With
love He called me out of the cold
I've
been walking with Jesus for many years
I
listen for His Voice that quells all my fears
I
hear Him say, 'Fear not my precious son
I'll
come to get you when your work is done.'
The
world is waiting for the message of love
Longing
for a touch from the Master Above
Haste
then My servant, be quick to say, 'Yes'
Tell
them of Jesus & His name they'll confess
I
called you to labour in My vineyard so large
You
were willing to go, so I gave you a Charge
Stand
firm on My promise, 'I'll leave you not'
Right
to the end until all the battles are fought
Great
things I have shown you over the years
Through
much joy and sorrow and even tears
You've
been true to the Gospel of My dear Son
In
numerous places lost souls have been won
The
Blood of the Lamb you've exalted so high
Doubters
have queried; you've told them why
From
John the Baptist who said, 'This is He'
Through
His Blood, you've made demons flee
It's
much darker now then when you began
To
carry My Son's Gospel from land to land
This
is the beginning of the 'Time of the End'
Satan
is working to destroy Jesus' friends
He
moves like a lion to steal, kill and destroy
Proud
hate-filled leaders his tools do deploy
Fearful
and desperate his fate is well known
The
Battle was over when I moved the Stone
Soldiers
fell to the ground when Jesus arose
Satan's End is near, as the Liar well knows
The Gospel of Christ will set all men free
God's
Miracles of Power will bring liberty
The
trumpet will sound & the saints will ascend
To
meet our dear Saviour and departed friends
The
Glory of God will stretch from sky to sky
And
to this old world, you'll say a final goodbye
