If only Christ were on His way <br />How good this life would be <br />In Him we’ll fear no judgement day <br />For through His blood we’re free <br /> <br />But do these words come from the heart? <br />Or is the truth more strange? <br />For Jesus’ blood is but the start <br />From which must come the change <br /> <br />We need to change our darkened soul <br />Heart and spirit must heal <br />The body cleansed, in truth made whole <br />For Christ to place His seal <br /> <br />For this; we need The Holy Flame <br />From Christ who once was dead <br />God’s Fire will come in Jesus’ name -Ac.2: 2-4 <br />As Baptised John once said -Lk.3: 16-17 <br /> <br />The Lord Himself laid down the plan <br />Still whole! Christ left the grave <br />The president that all of man <br />God’s Lamb had come to save <br /> <br />Now Jesus Christ has shown the way <br />Through blood it must begin <br />But through His Flame God’s Son today <br />Convicts His bride of sin <br /> <br />The judgement in the church will start <br />God’s house on Zion hill <br />His Flame of truth within man’s heart <br />Will burn the chaff at “will” <br /> <br />“Be ye perfect” is God’s command <br />Before we close our eyes <br />Lest some who think, to walk God’s land <br />May find a sad surprise.<br /><br />Michael P.
