The Unfolding of Your Word Gives Light


Those who look down on the Word 
Seeing an ancient ruin,
Foolish rubble,
Immorality.

Upon these, the Word will shine
Exposing foolish ruins,
Paradise Lost,
Inhumanity.

Those who are exposed in sin
Leading unto repentance,
Jesus Received,
Inaugurating.

Upon these, the Word will shine
Rejoicing the Soul with truth,
See! Beholding,
Imperishable.
