There's a gospel of today

There's a gospel of today That says believe and you'll be saved — and then You can go to heaven and see the pearly gates And walk the golden streets Words like these — fail to treat All the vanity — that is hidden in me.

But the gospel is to me The Triune God within humanity As the Spirit reaching me to be in me The One reality Love untold — Gospel Thee Never getting old — story told eternally.

Left the ninety-nine behind — You searched until the lost sheep You did find Laid me on Your shoulders there, You bore me in Your tender loving care Rejoicing — You found me Though a small lost sheep — You gave all to come find me.

Sweeping in my deepest parts, You lit a lamp and searched my inward heart Sanctifying deep within You shined in me, Exposed me of my sin Repenting — now I see Lord, You're sprinkling me — with the blood You shed for me.

Eagerly awaiting me That I the slightest turn to Thee would make Though my life had been a wreck, You ran to me And fell upon my neck Kissing me, affectionately, Killing the calf for me — " Let us eat and be merry."
