Dispensations
Innocence
A perfect
garden;
a vengeful
Serpent
deceiving one--man chose
Death
in stead of Me.
Conscience
A guide to
whisper
"No, that's not
right;"
earth is defiled--she chose
Lust
in stead of Me.
Torah
Two tables of
stone,
a guide for
Peace
with your Father--you chose
Corruption
in stead of Me.
Judges
Kings ruled, prophets
led
you by the hand to
pastures
green; yet the sheep stray--choosing
Sin
in stead of Me.
Messiah
Two pierced
Hands
offer love; "Is
not
this Joseph's son?"--they choose
not
to acknowledge Me.
Grace
Go ye into all the
world,
even the
Uncircumsised.
Yet is none righteous--you choose
World
in stead of Me.
Judgment
Now you want the
Door
opened another
way?
I gave you every chance--you receive
Torment
in stead of Me.
