Eternal Life
11/09/2009
George Poulo

What have you done O Lord
That I see
When I look at the sun
Shining on the autumn leaves
Your love and majesty alight:
Your presence and your power
 
What have you done O Lord
That I see
When I experience
Poverty, hatred, and evil
Only sadness and deprivation
And the need for Christ to redeem:
The need for mercy and compassion
 
What have you done O Lord
That I see
When I look within
Gold tried in the fire
Of sorrow and affliction
A faith born of much affliction:
The transformation of a soul
 
What have you done?
It is the miracle of Christ
Who suffered, died, and was buried
And who rose for my justification
And baptized me in the Holy Ghost
And fire.
 
Now I see what I could not see before
A life hidden with Christ in God
And the hope and a joy and a peace
That passes understanding
For it is in dying that I have received
Eternal life
Selah
