The Bible shows that man was made
To simply enter into rest.
The Sabbath was man’s first full day
God had prepared for him the best.
All had been done
there was no need
For man to work but rest with God.
This is our life today
right now!
How wonderful
He’s done it all!
There’s no need to struggle!
There’s no need to strain!
There’s no need to labor
All self-effort is vain!
It’s a life of resting!
It’s a life of feasting!
It’s a life of enjoying God!
We once tried doing what was good
But right and wrong are just one tree.
Instead
we eat the tree of life
And take God in
receive
believe!
No longer I—I’m crucified
But it is Christ who lives in me.
No need to try to imitate
He is displayed spontaneously!
We have been grafted to a tree.
The Lord
the vine
does flow so free
With all His riches into us.
Positioned now
we just receive.
He is the place for us to stay;
As we remain
much fruit we bear.
Abide in Him
let Him abide
Such sweet supply
His life to share!
Though we still err
so prone to fail
God’s given us a testament
Of all He’s done for us to claim.
Let’s seize it to the full extent!
When we fall short and miss the mark
We take the blood
He paid the cost.
From scarlet stain to pure white snow
How powerful! We’re cleansed
we’re washed!
We’re free
unbound from chains that held.
We have returned from slavery.
Such joy
such rest! We’re home
how blessed!
It’s Christ! He’s here as Jubilee!
A feast is spread
it’s Christ Himself
Our food
our drink eternally.
No condemnation but a call
To eat and drink and merry be!
