"Two nations... and two manner of people shall be separated... thus Esau despised his birthright" (Genesis 25:23,34). "Salvation is far from the wicked: for they seek not thy statutes" (Psalm 119:155). "My son, give Me thine heart, and let thine eyes observe My ways" (Proverbs 23:26). "We are the Lord's. For to this end Christ both died, and rose, and revived, that He might be Lord both of the dead and living" (Romans 14:8).
How far the separation
is
And distant from
the Lord that nation
With all of
those who are not His
Because they
have refused salvation!
Yet instantly
the Lord will lift
All those who
from their sin depart
To give to Him
that precious gift:
A humble and
surrendered heart.
For to this end
Christ died and rose
When He
descended to the earth.
How costly is
His gift to those
To whom He gives
a second birth!
O Lord, the gift
that we have craved
You purchased at
so great a cost;
The separation
of the saved
Is infinite
between the lost!
