Two Sisters
The sisters of the gospel have one mother known as Grace
And One great Holy Father Who beholds them face to face
Instructing them in how they are to strive with us below
As they as one together are to let the whole world know
The beauty of the message from beginning to the end
That's rooted in the Son of God on Whom we all depend
To actuate the gospel in the eyes of all who see
The character of those who plan to live eternally
One sister's name is spoken very often everyday
By those who are considered to be in the Christian Way
The other's not so often as it sometimes is abused
By those who think there is some way their labor can be used
To make their way to heaven through the good things they must do
The good things that are spoken of expected of us too
But not to gain an entrance as some may be taught it will
But to reveal the love of God is ruling in us still
For without this one sister who is like a siamese twin
The other one would suffer and would die to selfish sin
For of a truth to live and breathe they both must have their way
And be revealed in Christians daily as they do and say
Those things that show connection with the power of the Son
The power of the gospel that alone can make us one
That power once again called Grace who gives the sisters birth
In every child of God who's born again for that New Earth
Where Faith and Works reveal Him Who adorns them through His Grace
To be the light that actuates the love on every face
The world must see as Christians who give heart and soul to Him
Who is the Father of the ones who have these two in them
Revealing by their presence what the world needs most to see
The real attending power of the gospel's ministry
That reaches to the lowest and the highest of mankind
And sees each soul as needing Godly love to fill their mind
That has on earth no preference but that every soul might live
And share that mighty gospel Jesus died for us to give
As Faith and Works live through the ones who know Him best of all
And who'll awaken when He comes in answer to His call
James 2:1-26; Matthew 28:18-20
