jars of clay

jars of clay

jars of clay, earthen vessels,
lit within by HOLY Light,
filled with oil from the Master
for our journey through the night.


part ! from worldly ways and wonders,
cleave to heavens Holy Groom,
think not oft of days now over,
live today in God’s throne room.


walk now quietly before Him,
seek His guidance day by day,
remember, dear one, now and always
Christ is Life, Truth and God’s Way.



make the paths of Him your own now,
put your feet in His lovely shoes,
walk in His obedient footsteps
to let the world see His Good News.


He has saved you for His purpose,
weary not in doing this,
all have need to taste His goodness,
love your neighbor, brother kiss.


FEAR NO EVIL, HE IS WITH YOU,
stumble not at His command,
it’s no grief to do His bidding,
He promises the New Jerusalem.


Remember the day of God’s Salvation,

the cross

where John and Mary stood.

There Christ
gave them each the other,
John and Mary
son and mother,
giving, as He only could.


Jesus came and died and saved us
from hell’s death and punishment,
from the grave He rose and gave us
each the other back again.


though the breaking may seem painful,
o! the Light!!! the sweet release!!
Light of God lights all the house now,
shining out Christ’s perfect peace.


let your light shine, earthen vessel,
though fearful ones will run and flee,
pursue them not except in God’s love,
that they may find eternity.


know ye not ye are the Temple
of God our blessed Holy Ghost?
Christ now in you, the hope of glory,
SALVATION to the UTTERMOST!!!


KEEP YOUR VESSEL CLEANSED WITHIN,
AND CAREFULLY WASH IT EVERY DAY,
USE THE WATER OF GOD’S WORD
THE BIBLE AND THE SPIRIT SAY.


trim your wick and let the candle
now be lit by God’s own Hand
join your brothers, sisters, mothers
following Christ to
Beulah Land !!!!!!!
