Title: *Christ Our Anchor*

1.
Today our Father says
I hear your prayers 
Receive my breath
Arise from death. 
Breathe in my Grace
Look into my Smiling Face 
Breathe in my ministry
Breathe out my sovereignty.
It's so amazing to fathom 
How I breathed into Adam 
Who then became 
A living soul
Complete and perfectly whole
Endowed with authority 
To extend his community
Family and dominion 
Over several billion
He was given birth
To subdue the earth 
Extracting from it
A heavenly place to sit
And receive the blessings 
The many exciting lessons 
I created for him to live by.
In reaching for the sky
Notice how many are those
Which bloom of summer rose 
Born again life-giving spirits,
Sharpening all their merits, 
Recreated in Christ,

Invited but never enticed

2.

Ministered by angels

Taking it in turn to

Ring the church bells

This is who

You are beloved

Keep that truth

 In your head

Understand what

it constitutes

Accept no substitutes. 

Refuse all bad

 Images of man

I am your biggest fan

Refuse all those 

Images of failure 

Push them right 

Out the door.

Permit not those shadows

Of past deeds and things

An attempt to clip 

Your precious wings

You are not a failure

Nor are you a bore. 

You are not without hope

You have tremendous scope. 

No, your future

 Is not bleak. 

For, even as we speak

This very hour,

You are a

Principality and Power

Sanctioned by 

The shed blood

Of Calvary

To set man free 

To go out

And quench all doubt 

And to demonstrate 

With love not hate

Who I AM

In all the earth.
