The Jew
The mystery of history
The Jew still remains
Preserved, indestructible
Despite sorrow and pain.
Passover-First Fruits-Easter
On this ‘Feast of First Fruits’
A burnt and grain offering
Foreshadowing Messiah
And His people, following.
Pesach-Passover…Exodus
How God frees from bondage
All those, captive to sin
Jesus’ blood, our atonement
To cleanse of leaven, within.
My People
Though God has chastised
They faced every threat
But His Covenant people
He does not forget.
My Jewish Background
Grew up with tradition
Lived under the Law
Rabbinical Judaism, Yiddish
Was the life that I saw.
Modern Israel
Scattered, through sin
The scriptures foretold
Now fulfilling prophesy
God’s Word of old.
Messianic Judaism
Reconciled thro’ His death
To God, in one body
Fulfilling God’s Law
A new covenant, to embody.
God’s Special Treasure
O Hallelujah, thro’ Messiah
All our sins washed away
With Him died, and we rise
His special treasure, every day.
God’s Righteousness
While Gentiles sought not
God and His holiness
But now have attained
By faith, His righteousness.
Altars and Offerings
With the cross as His altar
His blood there was poured
The spotless, Lamb of God
Our atonement, and LORD.
