The Temple

The blocks by time are held in place ~

They form the buildings surface.

God adds to the structure day by day ~

Creating in me a place for Him to stay.

The foundation is so secure ~

The Rock will forever endure.

No human hands can do this task ~

He is making me new; the die is cast.

One by one He places the blocks ~

As steady as the ticking of the clock.

He knows where the windows go ~

Where the Light will truly show.

The rooms all filled with love ~

That He sent from above.

He lined the hallway with grace ~

That leads me to the Master's face.

Salvation in the very high walls ~

You can hear the evening bells call.

Prayer is the sweet smell in each room

~

It goes out morning, night, and noon.

The sacrifice is His Son on the altar ~

It is His gift to me He offers.

The Holy Spirit lives here inside ~

Forever with me to abide.

Plenty of space for improvement to be done ~

So the work continues until His Kingdom comes.

Painting and molding each little joint ~

His Holy Spirit this place to anoint.

He never goes out or leaves me alone ~

He sits in the middle right on the throne.

He is building the temple stone by stone ~

He is comfortable He is at home.

Faith is the key that opens the door ~

Righteousness is the covering for the floor.

Where He walks is pure and clean ~

All must go that is in between.

The temple is His achievement ~

The plans are all in agreement.

Not one block is out of place ~

They are all laid by His mercy and grace.

He placed the temple right here ~

Within my heart with care.

He will reveal its size ~

One day to my very eyes!
