He Lived The Life (March 21, 2012)

By Allan Thomasson

 When Jesus came, ‘He Lived The Life’

That we were made to live.                           II Corinthians 5:21
There was so much that we did need;
He had so much to give.                              Isaiah 53:5-6

He came from heaven to the earth,

And lived within His flesh,                          Hebrews 10:5
Made by a woman, sinless formed,              Galatians 4:4; Matthew 1:18
Began His life afresh.

 His troubles were the same as ours,       Hebrews 4:15

But sinless life lived He.
The law fulfilled, the Father’s will,          John 17:4-5
Was now, for you and me

Ordained, that by believing Him,

We would salvation claim                                John 3:16
From all the sins we had committed,
We trusted in His name.

John three-sixteen has always been

The Way to heaven’s door.                           John 14:6
Now Jesus, God’s beloved Son,
Will love us evermore.                              John 14:21-24

He is the Way, the only way

We, to the Father, come.                            John 14:6
And that day when He comes again,
He'll take us gently home                          I Corinthians 15:51-54

To that new heaven and new earth,

Made for God’s family,                             Revelation 21:1-7
Who have believed in Jesus Christ;
With Him fore’er to be.

Man cannot comprehend the beauty       I Corinthians 2:9-10

Our eyes shall behold.
Far better than ‘imagination’,                 
Streets paved with pure gold.

And Christ will be the light thereof,                Revelation 21:24

No shadows shall there be.
‘For the former things are passed away.’,
When its glory we shall see.

Don’t hesitate, come go with me

To that place of eternal love,
Which Christ our Lord prepares for us           John 14:1
In God’s great home above.
