There’s a gospel of today

There’s a gospel of today That says believe and you’ll be saved and then You can go to heaven and see the pearly gates And walk the golden streets; Words like these fail to treat All the vanity that is hidden in me. |

But the gospel is to me The Triune God within humanity As the Spirit reaching me to be in me The one reality; Love untold—Gospel Thee Never getting old—story told eternally. |

Left the ninety-nine behind— You searched until the lost sheep You did find, Laid me on Your shoulders there, You bore me in Your tender loving care; Rejoicing—You found me Though a small lost sheep—You gave all to come find me. |

Sweeping in my deepest parts, You lit a lamp and searched my inward heart, Sanctifying deep within You shined in me, Exposed me of my sin; Repenting—now I see Lord, You’re sprinkling me—with the blood You shed for me. |

Eagerly awaiting me That I the slightest turn to Thee would make Though my life had been a wreck, You ran to me And fell upon my neck Kissing me, affectionately; Killed the calf for me—“Let us eat and be merry.” |

For the 6 grade conference (2017) we were all encouraged to pick songs we wanted to sing. This was definitely a favorite, and was sung over and over, in the meeting, in the cabins, and in the dining room. It inspired many 6 graders to share openly in the meetings, including me and my friends. It has now become a favorite of many!!!
