First Love

Jesus said that I didn't come to bring peace to the world but a sword
Those who know my peace are in one accord
They have my mind they are not the world's kind
They stand strong and my grace they embrace
My Spirit bears witness with theirs
We are one you see and they are free
Seeking and searching hungering and thirsting
They will find me and be filled
It's my plan to keep them in my hand
No one or nothing can take them from me
Even the enemy must flee
This world does not move them
It has no power over them
Face to face is the place they love
It's the higher calling
Which keeps them from falling
They will never be held captive
Prison is not their home
They will always rise to soaring
While the world is warring
They walk in my strength clothed in my joy and humility
Not futility or subtlety, that's not their way
The wisdom they seek is from above and not below
It's the narrow way which they choose to go
Nothing can stop them, nothing can break them
Nothing can hold them and nothing can shake them
They keep their eyes lifted looking to the sky
Jesus (their Lord and Savior) they will behold
Just as the Bible foretold!
