This afternoon we had a family get together for dinner since the whole family could be here. That has become a pretty rare event with the Jensen's away in Kansas, so we have to take advantage of it when we can. We also used the occasion to announce that we had purchased a lot and were planning to build a new house! That got mixed reactions from the group, but mostly it was cheered. We then went out and put up a "For Sale" sign in the yard.
If the earth could give its witness, All creation shout its praise, If the continents and oceans, Spoke to man of their devotion, Would mortals doubt Him so, If all were now made known?
If the faithless of the ages, Were to feel His healing power, If the eyes and ears He opened, Might be theirs for just a moment, Would it soften hearts of stone, If He were truly known?
Face to Face-- So few were in that place, When the heavens sent Messiah To reclaim this fallen race.
If I could stand atop the mountains, And sound His name in every ear, If I had power to tell His story, Like the angels have before me, Would more sins be swept away, If the world could sense the debt He paid?
Face to Face-- I’ll seek Him all my days, He means more than life to me. Death can’t take that away.
And if I can’t convince a world, Well, then perhaps I’ll reach a soul, As I tell of how He’s changed me, How I wait for Him to take me, Take me home,
Then I’ll worship on my knees, And kiss once wounded feet. Though He knows of my prayers, One day I’ll tell Him Face to Face.
