December 15–21 ❘ Proclamation to the World
Proclamation to the World
Children’s children are the crown of old men;
and the glory of children are their fathers.
Proverbs 17:6
The glory of God is intelligence:
element organized before the world was,
begotten spirit offspring birthed
from darkness to light.
The glory of God is immortality, eternal lives:
brought to pass by Savior turning hearts
from inward search to outward reach,
parents and posterity gathering close.
The glory of the Lord is a heritage:
a quiver full of children brighter than steel,
sharper than arrows flying
to world’s uttermost part with purpose.
The glory of the Lord fills the earth:
His family fills the whole earth
from eternity to eternity,
worlds without end.
