The Greatest Blessing

The greatest blessing
Is also the very curse
A wedge driven between two worlds
Is the bridge to bind
The extremities of existence
Who can cross its threshold?
Who can know its bounds?
He who can measure the East from the West
Can know the dimensions of its run

Perfect wrath and perfect love
Consummate in crucial concord
Transacted from the foundation
Exacted and contracted without detraction
The Father gave His Son
His Spirit lacked for none
And yet the Three are One
Consecrated unto the uttermost
Vocation without revocation
Perfect Man and Perfect God
With whom is this world’s unyielding enmity
Yet every knee will bow to Him
Who hung upon that tree
For death was His portion
Death without contortion
To purchase the expedience
Of a people of His own
Expiation for those in solemn trepidation
A new nation of the collective redeemed
Rivers of tears descend
At the sight of Him who did contend
With Hell’s fire without relenting
Victory at Calvary
A hope for the hopeless
Life and light to the dead and lost
Reflection and Summation:
What is this my heart has found?
A message old, but not renowned
Except for in the heavenly veil
A wall too high for man to scale
For small are we, and thoughts are twisted
We cannot see what glory visited
Our humble planet years ago
God’s perfect grace and love to show
Mercy beckons sweet salvation
Yet we revile in continuation
Where is hope for stubborn men?
Within the will of God, not them
