The Bride Gives Birth (3) Poem by Michael P. Johnson

Although we’ve left, you’re not alone
Now we who love you dear
We all have Christ God’s Corner Stone
Who’s always in our near

Pray victory, has no need to knock
Upon your children’s door
That soundly built on solid Rock
We’ll have so much in store

Filled high with treasures none can buy
God’s love to overflow
Allow your children now to fly
Where Christ would have us go

From out of you, God made of me
A church of living stone
Formed by grace by Royal decree
To stand on Christ alone

We came to serve His name on high
The Father’s will be done
So out of you, He formed this I
Yet we in Christ are one!

But you or I, it’s all the same
We live to Christ the Lord
So in His name it’s here we came
To serve in one accord

We need your prayers sweet mother dear
We need God’s guiding hand
Although we’re strong, whilst serving here
Alone, we’ll fail to stand

I won’t be long in giving birth
My pains have so increased
So now we must for all we’re worth
Keep watch out for the Beast –Rev.12: 13-17…
