From Jordan, past Mount Paran, to Gilead

Go up from chilly Death’s Jordan, past the biblical Mount Paran
Those who’ve covenanted, by Sacrifice, for the Promised Land
Terry not in that old muddy Jordan; flee from Death’s dark veil
God’s people are privileged, to victory’s stand, His foes to assail
With a circumcised heart, slowly we ascend that muddy stream
Our eyes fixed on the Door-Way, and the Prize/Mark, his theme
Days of purging end; we're redeemed by the mighty King-Lamb
As the Law of her does bears the Man-child, who rules for I-AM
Out of Zion goes-forth God's Law; this Man-child’s coming of age
Scenes of the day of the Lord, recompense now sets His stage
Christ in us, manifested Son, of his dynamous power to come
Sold-out ones, humbled in power, divinely yield to the Holy One
Abraham’s blessing be upon you, for Paran is now Mecca today
South of Sinai of Egypt, then; God still delivers- come what may
Now at His abode, feeding on Carmel, and satiated on Mt. Gilead
For Benjamin’s tribe will take possession over rulership gone bad

Excellent poem. I must read more.

God bless. |
