Things aren't always as they seem
Remember this my friend....
There may be a new beginning
in what appears to be the end
A grain of wheat must die first
buried within the earth
before it begins the journey
toward a glorious new birth
In a garden of beauty so grand
created by God's own hand
lived the vineyardman of the earth
who walked upon blessed land
Sad to say..there came the day
beloved man from Grace did fall
and in his fall...he died
and life as he knew it..passed away
All of heaven must have grieved
As the lover of man, Himself..cried
But God....had a plan
all for the redemption of beloved man
And man from death was redeemed
By a Holy and blameless Lamb
It took the death of pure innocence
To give life once again
Holy blood was spilled that day
by One who knew no sin
All to save and rescue man
and bring him home again
The Lamb...Holy and blameless
was nailed upon a cross....
He died a cruel and horrible death
to bring to heaven once again
the beloved which had been lost.
That which appears to be the end
may not be the ending it seemed
for the end is just the beginning
my friend...for those who are called
The Redeemed
