The Role of a Pastor

His primary goal, our salvation
Our atonement, kept His Word
Yet first trained, His disciples
To spread His Gospel, to the world.

Rest in Him, and wait patiently
Fret not o’er those who prosper
Those working wicked ways
Whose works are improper.

Once we’re strong in the Lord
And the power of His might
In the armor of God
Each temptation takes flight.

But washed clean, before we offer
As in the Tabernacle, with laver
Now Jesus’ blood, still sanctifies
So, our heart and offerings, find favor.

Though we know not the day
Nor hour He will come
God’s Word never fails
We shall soon, see His Son.

Start a fire, LORD we ask
And burn up the dross
Great repentance and turning
Before yet more, are lost.

Learn from Adam, our wrongs
We must own, and not hide
Nor blame others, but confess
And repent…. in Christ abide.

For His compassions, fail not
They are new each morning
Great is Your faithfulness
The LORD, is my portion.

And put on the new man
Created according to God
In true righteousness and holiness
In His fullness, now daily trod.

Tho’ many called, few are chosen
The self-righteous, are cast out
Into outer darkness
All the unclean, not allowed.
