There Nothing Fades

Yes, our new heavenly home
All so perfect, and pure
Our eternal abode
And forever secure.

Not our knowledge, our ‘leaves’
Our sin, we can’t cover
For God sees our hearts
Any sweet fruit, to discover?

Yes, receive of God’s blessing
First surrender each part
Not the best of our flesh
First, our will and our heart.

In God’s Vine, keep abiding
As His branch, bearing fruit
Stay dependent, keep praying
Christ-likeness, your pursuit.

But, if our vision is great
Believe God, is Almighty
Omnipotent, omniscient
Then our faith too, is mighty.

And beyond death, life eternal
Before His glory, we’ll be
Assured, forever with Jesus
O how blessed, are we!

To be fuel, for Your fire
May this light, burn bright
As a beacon of hope
So lost souls, find sight.

But, before any work
God first fills the man
Needs a heart, God-dependent
To fulfil His plan.

Come fill, and anoint us
Rooted, grounded in love
Comprehending the greatness
Of Jesus love, from above.

LORD God, send the fire
Upon us we pray
Hourly, and daily
Purify, have Your way.
