Be Holy As Your God Is Holy
I read of a saviour's love...
his righteousness and glory.
I also read of a God who is
awesome and holy.
Without holiness, no man shall
approach his throne.
If one day you expect to make
heaven your home.
When it comes to holiness...
many have a "different interpretation."
It's the sincerity of your heart
that get's God's attention.
Many in church have made
the idea of holiness a joke.
"I can be Christian and curse,
drink and smoke!"
It's what goes into your heart that
pollutes your eternal soul.
The blood of Christ needs to daily cleanse
and make you whole!
When you totally fall in love with
Jesus and lay at his feet.
It'll be your hunger for his
righteousness that'll be sweet!
Then an appetitte for God's
holiness in you will arise.
A desire for God's beauty
shall captivate your eyes.
It's only in Christ alone where
you'll find a true treasure.
You won't want the things anymore
that once gave you "pleasure."
Holiness from God is yours--
just for the asking.
It will lead you into a life that is
complete and everlasting!
