God's Own Love   (March 18, 2012)

By Allan Thomasson

Once, before the universe,

There is Infinity.
God is that 'One’ in the ‘great beyond’
Endless eternity.

God is the only Power, for

From Him all powers come.
Infinity's the Science of sciences,
Of that, here's the sum:

The universe is 'natural science',

Just made for heav'n and earth.
Jehovah God; then, made that science
As the universe was birthed.

It was God's plan for mortal man,

To be God's family.
So God made Adam, then made Eve,
And now, both you and me.

For God is love, and 'up above',

His reason for creation
Was that all people on the earth
Throughout all generations,

Would be His sons, His perfect ones,

Whom God would love so dear,
Also that we would love Him back,
Our Father. So it's clear,

That only here, upon the earth,

God made the mortal man                           Genesis 1:26-27
He loved, while sinners yet we were            Romans 5:8
For God had His great plan:

That He’d redeem us from our sin,               Psalm 107:2

Through Jesus Christ, His Son.                    Acts 16:31
For Jesus came from heav’n above,
And died for every one.                                 Isaiah 53:5-6

When we each, and every one,

Believed in Christ’s sweet name,                  John 3:16-18
In God’s great plan which He had made,
His son we then became.                              I John 3:1

So God’s own love comes down to us          Romans 5:8

(For us all things were made!)
That we might be God’s family,                     I John 3:1-3
On us His love is stayed

Throughout all endless ages in

That great eternity.
For all the years of trial and tears
Shall then all cease to be.

He’ll make new heaven, and new earth         Revelation 21:1-7

(For the ‘old’ has passed away!).                   Revelation 20:11
And God’s own love will flow like breezes
In that endless ‘day’.
