"Thy word is very pure: therefore Thy servant loveth it. I am small and despised: yet do not I forget Thy precepts" (Psalm 119:140,141). "Behold what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew Him not. Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when He shall appear, we shall be like Him; for we shall see Him as He is. And every man that hath this hope in Him purifieth himself, even as He is pure" (1 John 3:1-3).
Now things are not what they seem;
There's more than we can see.
The truth indeed is like a dream
Of things that could not be.
But God has told us to behold
The things that must seem odd:
And we believe as He has told,
We are the sons of God!
Behold what love has called us His!
With eyes of faith we see:
That we shall see Him as He is.
And we shall like Him be!
