Calling us back to Him – v3

God’s messengers, the seasons,
the turning of the page,
ancient words of scripture
and the heavens declare
God’s glory, God’s grace
for all of us.

God offers Himself to us
His Son, His Spirit,
that we may find our way
back to Him, to His grace,
to His warm embrace
at the end of the journey.

God calls us with the
babe in the manger
with the Son upon the cross,
our loving sacrifice
with the means of grace
living all around us.

God woos us with
the words of scripture
and the lives of the saints
proving His covenants with us
that His promises are fulfilled
that His word is true.

God is with us ever, still,
offering us a way to Him
through Christ, the babe,
our brother and our King
through the Holy Spirit
who lives within us.
