"For the cloud of the Lord was upon the tabernacle by day, and fire was on it by night, in the sight of all the house of Israel throughout all their journeys" (Exodus 40:38).
The cloud by day, the fire by night,
Was on the tabernacle tent,
A testimony in their sight,
Where the house Israel went.
In all their journeys and their strife
Throughout their desert wandering,
The tabernacle in their life
Was there for daily pondering.
The tabernacle court within,
With daily offerings sacrificed,
Would bring remembrance of their sin
And their Savior, Lord, and Christ.
The application that we enter
Within the tabernacle shown
Reminds us Christ is still the Center,
And we ought to make Him known.
These tabernacle paradigms,
Until with Christ we're face to face,
Instruct us in our life and times
To magnify our Savior's grace.
