Ecclesiasticus
3:18021. Hebrews 12:18-19,
22-24
To the humble, contrite
heart the Father speaks
the riches of His word and
the comfort of His love.
And His word challenges
one and all to receive His
gifts in humility and self-giving.
As the word takes root
within the heart and mind,
the Father’s love
entering the inmost part
of the soul, so do the faithful
become Our love to others
according to the Father’s
will and loving purpose.
When at the end of time
all are judged by love,
all faithful in the way
and obedient to the word
will recognise the covenant
made with one and all is
that the faithful in love
will abide in the fulness
of Our Godhead for ever
in fellowship with all made
perfect in Our love.
