"Even every man that is called by my name: for I have created him for my glory.
I have formed; yea, I have made him."
Isaiah 43:7
Made for Your glory formed for Your praise
filled with Your Spirit never a mere phase
Like a caring shepherd tending his lone fold
strength of The Almighty meek yet so bold
Unblemished beauty seen only in Your face
blessed by Thy mercy saved by Thy grace
Jesus Your only Son in birth and life and loss
sent here to save us sacrificed on the cross
Brutally tortured with flesh torn blood spilt
in three days' time The Temple was rebuilt
We bow before You with no scar nor shame
by the Love of Jesus we pray in His Name
Thy Holy Spirit within us we are never alone
through Christ's blood we bow at Your throne
You give strength today and Hope of tomorrow
Knocking at doors of sinners who've no sorrow
For Thy glory Oh Lord we are sent here to live
in order to share Thy story and how You forgive
After the night's darkness has rested our plight
Father's Light harkens to do the best we might
Light of The World all praises are to be Thine
You shine through us as our hearts entwine
Made for Your glory formed for Your praise
a heart given to Jesus in Thy hand ever stays
In The Name Of Christ Jesus
Amen!
