Analysis of Revealed Mystery
Richard Newton Sherrer 1951 (Easton)
You have heard of sharing the grace,
That God has given unto you;
For the blessings it will embrace,
With wisdom for helping construe.
How the mystery was made known,
By revelation as written;
Afore in a few words alone,
That some have thought were forbidden.
When you read this, you can perceive,
Seen in the mystery of Christ;
That you be able to believe,
How earthly pleasures have enticed.
Which was not made known to your son,
That to others will be revealed;
What the Holy Spirit has done,
The apostles and prophets kneeled.
The secret that non-Jews are heirs,
As partakers of the promise;
Through Jesus that everyone shares,
Having a spiritual justice.
Of this Gospel that I was made,
Through a poetic gift of grace;
Power given through the price paid,
Working towards to feel His embrace.
