Psalm for Today

A Co-heirs Creed

 When all else has seemed to fail and no human effort found to prevail
Consider Him who knew us first, it is through Him we can quench our thirst
Let us close our eyes and not our mind, seeking His counsel for an answer to find
Having fallen prostrate before His throne, at once we realize we are nevermore alone
Lord, pull us from this pit into which we fell, we cry out for help in Your name, Imanuel
If it is Your will to rescue us, then set us upon the hill as beacons of hope and trust
I have been set apart by Jesus
Because I believe He came to free us
Reclaimed from the world’s ill fit
And made a co-heir through the Spirit
Now that the foe has been made known and we are revealed by the true Light shown
The search for our true purpose that caused us to roam, has now lead us through Jesus to our glorious home
Where once we were dying in everyday, we have now been lead by the Light and Truth by the Way
It was through this world that I was born and it was through this world that I am torn
But just as every rose has its thorn, a diamond must first be cut from the rough before it is worn
What was only before a glimmer seen afar, has now been revealed through Christ a bright and shining star
I have been set apart by Jesus
Because I believe He came to free us
Reclaimed from the world’s ill fit
And made a co-heir through the Spirit
When I was feeling at my worst and had forgotten whom to consult on this matter first
It was only through this lingering dread I remembered Him who is our Living Bread
Daily, I feed the needs I pine from Him who changed water into wine
Now the only fear I have to dread, would be to not share with others the Living Bread
So through this song of hope and praise, I hope I inspire others through their days
Do remember the LORD, for He is always there and your inheritance awaits you because of His care
I have been set apart by Jesus
Because I believe He came to free us
Reclaimed from the world’s ill fit
And made a co-heir through the Spirit
