To Be More Like Jesus

While pondering Romans :26,27 and 2nd Corinthians 3 the following poem came to mind.

Your Spirit, Your permanent glory unfolds
To give us such hope wherein we are made bold.
Removing the hardness of minds which were veiled
When all on the cross through our Savior was nailed.

With words now unuttered Your Spirit now groans
Interceding now perfect By Christ Who atoned
Transforming our members to know of Your mind,
To be more like Jesus, Whose glory we find

Exceeds all the glory when bound by the law
Which held us then captive, and by it were awed.
This freedom You gave us, removing the curse
As we in our Savior our sins were immersed.

And buried by mercy beholding Your face,
We praise You in awe of Your glorious grace.
Now raised by Your Holy omnipotent call
To life everlasting, redeemed from the fall.

Oh help us Dear Father pursue all Your truth
Made faithful to show by indelible proof,
Commending ourselves to the conscience of men
That only through Jesus, Do You save from sin.
