CALLED TO GLORY
By Favour Chukwunoyenim
*CALLED TO GLORY is not for the man who’s now dead,
*In whose lifetime, neglected the good news he heard.
*In my living body, I am the one CALLED TO GLORY,
*And this is real, much more than a story.
*He bought me, blest me and empowered me.
*Gave me His spirit, made me just as He is,
*Became poor that I might be rich,
*Was slain that I might live.
*Called me out of the darkness in which many still grope,
*Blest me with all blessings,
*Given me all that concerns life,
*Made me his icon and representation,
*Such that as He is, so am I in this world.
*This is so profound, indeed it’s true.
*I have been CALLED TO GLORY and virtue,
*To show forth Beauty, Majesty and Excellence.
*Yes an excellency He’s made me,
*As I believed Him and confessed Him as Lord,
*I was then CALLED TO GLORY.
*I am the Light of the world,
*Showing men the way they must go.
*I arise and shine because I’ve been CALLED TO GLORY,
*I shine brighter than the sun, brighter than the stars.
*He made me His masterpiece, centerpiece and workmanship.
*Bestowing great treasures in me, a clayey vessel.
*Calling me to realms that transcend the terrestrial,
*With an ever increasing splendour and grandeur,
*A pulsating life that reaches the sublime and celestial.
*That’s my CALL TO GLORY.
*A call to take up serpents without being hurt.
*A call to live like God and become as He is even in this world.
*A call to arise above fear and condemnation, sin, sickness and death.
*I have been CALLED TO GLORY.
*Why remain in the dark alley? Come to Glory street,
*Where there’s no darkness and shadows of your past misdeeds,
*Where you exchange your weakness for strength
*Sickness for health and receive life for death
*The stains are much but they don’t matter,
*In fact it makes it easier so my friend why bother?
*Draw closer and be CALLED TO GLORY,
*You’ll no more see yourself as before,
*You become as Him, a true Victor.
*My people, it is my beautiful story,
*That indeed I’ve been CALLED TO GLORY.
