Until Grace Walks Away
If as the scriptures tell us man is of not many days
Then doesn't it behoove us to be mindful of our ways
To live in full accordance with the Statutes of God's will
That by His grace through living faith His Spirit might us fill
And does not it behoove us to live daily just like Him
Who laid aside His Kingly robes and mighty diadem
And took the garb of humble man in simple poverty
To give us an Example of His perfect purity
That we might here reflect Him in our character by words
That touch the lives of others turning their hearts heavenwards
To where our Lord ascended where for us He does abide
Once He was resurrected after He was crucified
Not for sins He committed but for those that we did do
Both open sins and hidden that He sees in me and you
That will forever keep us from eternal joyful bliss
Unless they are forgiven in an awesome time like this
While we still have probation while the books are not yet sealed
While there is still a little time in which we may be healed
Of every thing that's hurt us from our near and distant past
That God by grace has promised in the depths of love He'll cast
His love that's like an ocean that consumes what we have done
And hides it far away from us by merits of His Son
Who bled upon mount Calvary upon that cruel cross
That crimson wave to wash away the guilt of those once lost
But who found His amazing grace to be their sure retreat
When they abandoned all they were to bow at Jesus' feet
To meet Him where no sin prevails in focused time in prayer
Absorbing from His Spirit life and love that's waiting there
For those who will be willing to invest the time they have
Enjoying all God's privileges by sharing all not half
Of His eternal blessings with the people that they meet
Revealing most attentively the one thing that they seek
Assurance that they have a hope that though this life be brief
There is a life eternal for the ones who hold belief
In Christ as Life eternal Who is waiting still today
But only for a little time until grace walks away
Job 14:1-15; James 4:13-15; Micah 7:18, 19
