Missionary Journey
Richard Newton Sherrer 1951 (Easton)
I was made as a disciple,
According to the grace of God;
Through His power to the people,
Convince them to honor and laud.
Though I am the least of the saints,
As this grace was given to preach;
The riches of Christ without constraints,
With knowledge and wisdom to teach.
For everyone to bring to light,
What is the plan of mystery;
Enabled to giving insight,
What God has made through history.
So through the church the manifold,
The wisdom of God be made known;
Rulers and authorities told,
About Heaven upon His throne.
About the eternal purpose,
To realize Christ Jesus is Lord;
Through Him confess any trespass,
And start being in one accord.
For we have boldness and access,
Through our faith with confidence;
For bringing spiritual success,
To make God our precedence.
So I ask you not to lose heart,
Over what you are suffering;
For it is glory to impart,
Having Christ as your buffering.
