What A Love Gift!

 

FOR is the greatest reason

After mankind’s treason

The Devil thought he had won

GOD is the greatest being

There is no doubt about it

And the Devil was still undone

SO LOVED!  What an expression

Of so great affection!

None could exceed such love

THE WORLD: what a great community!

The object of God’s love

And His Son who came from above

THAT…Can you believe it?

It’s the greatest link

Far exceeding the Internet

HE, of course meaning God

The greatest ever Lover

None has ever match Him yet

GAVE: the greatest Giver

Of the greatest Gift

To humans so undeserved

HIS ONLY: the greatest sacrifice

That was ever given

Even God couldn’t give more

BEGOTTEN: What an outpouring!

The greatest out pouring there ever was

Poured out for you and me

SON: the greatest Gift ever

Was wrapped in swaddling bands

God Himself.  What a mystery!

THAT WHOSOEVER: The greatest impartiality

God’s gift to all in the World

Whosoever will may come

BELIEVETH: The greatest faith

Is really the simplest faith

That makes us a child of the kingdom

IN HIM: God is our greatest object

The soul object of saving faith

To whosoever would believe

SHALL NOT PERISH: What an assurance!

Hell holds no terror

To them that would Jesus Christ receive

BUT: Certainly the greatest contrast

Like life instead of death

And from slavery to redemption

HAVE: the greatest ever possession

With it nothing can compare

To our “so great salvation”

EVERLASTING LIFE: Which is

Without doubt the greatest desire

No doctor can provide it

And no scientist has what is required

From the greatest Book ever produced

Comes the greatest Love note ever written

From the greatest Author ever

Instructing the greatest community

How to be forgiven

For God so loved that He gave His Son

Every lost sinner to save

A sure way to escape the scourge of the Knave

And change the way we behave

His only begotten Son was all He had

To save a World that had all gone bad,

His only Son He sent in humanity clad,

Thank God my soul is now made glad.

If you would receive His Love Gift today

All your sins Christ will wash away,

His Spirit will come into your heart to stay

And all your fears He will allay.
