Lively Stones
My faithful loving Father God my great Redeemer King
To You my heart and soul I give my all and everything
No more to clutch this gift of life as though it were my own
I long to be Your light to life a true and living stone
Laid on that true Foundation You've established in Your Son
A temple fit and builded as a body all in One
Where Your bright Holy Presence can illumine hearts like mine
To reach a pinnacle of faith and from all sin resign
For Lord You are the Potter while we are but bits of clay
And daily on Your wheel You form us in Your perfect Way
To carry that You place inside us for the world to see
Salvation is the Gift You offer wholly full and free
But all too often those around us fear the Gift we have
Because of things that Satan's taught them of the coming wrath
When fire from the realms up yonder cleanse this world of sin
And with it all those souls unfaithful dark and void within
But when we come to know You truly as the One You are
The Spirit Son and Holy Father dwelling near not far
We see Your pure and Holy Being as all that we need
And know there's nothing You won't give us as You intercede
To take that sin that comes between us wiping it away
That by Your grace Your loving mercy might provide the Way
To come before Your throne of glory pure and whole again
No more a child that's lost to wander in this world of sin
For truly God will end this battle as the Bible says
He will erase the lies and fables by His Righteousness
And all those who will follow folly will cease to exist
Just like the dew that leaves as daylight drives away the mist
And those who've cherished all the wonder of Your love for us
Those who have been proved for Your service in whom You now trust
Will find that their Foundation always was in Christ our King
The One in Whom You prove in scriptures gives us everything
So help us Lord to never doubt You never leave Your side
Help us to share Your grace and wonder that we may not hide
The vital aspect of Your Spirit's life in us we bear
To show the world through our reflection all You want to share
Matthew 10:7, 8; 1 Corinthians 2:9-16; 1 Peter 2:1-5
