TO BE IN THAT NUMBER

To Be in That Number

To be one of the number that no one can count,

to stand with sisters and brothers no longer earth-bound,

from every nation and language, every tribe, every land;

all dressed in white, washed in the blood of the Lamb…..



In front of the Lamb, to join in the cry,

spontaneous and glorious as it rings through the sky:

“Salvation belongs to our God and the Lamb!”

The tears of earth gone; wiped away by God’s hand…..


To join with the angels and fall down on my face

and worship Him, the God of all grace;

to live in His presence, to serve Him forever…..

this is my hope and brings joy without measure!


(Rev.7:9-17)
