Track 13: All about you (Written by Abdul Masih)
We were made for his good pleasure
In clay pots like us he puts his greatest treasure
Christ – Dying to stop sin’s epileptic seizures
Oh! What a love without limits, love without measure
We are fashioned by His eternal will
Driven to perfection with His Spirit at the wheel
He purchased us, yes! He paid the bill
Leading us into Zion by rivers calm and still
We were transported from darkness in light
Blood and Spirit flowed and we received sight
His Eternal Light pierces the spooky shadow of night
Love brings the dawn, casting away dewdrops of fright
We are grafted into the plushest of vines
Richly supplied with all that is Divine
Drunk with the Living Spirit, and not lethal wine
Delving deep into the glories of Heaven’s mine
We are packed chock-full with all of Him
Dispensers of the Glory, we are filled to the brim
So no matter how frail or mortal we may seem
We are Live-wires – not subject to the devil’s whims
We are drenched in the oils of Chevron* and washed
Planted in the Garden of Eden – magnificent and lush
Garrisoned by angels unlike candy we can’t be crushed
So we march in triumphant, death and hell is hushed
We see Grace fall from Zion as mountain dew
Many are called and we are among the chosen few
For the chosen generation born anew
We bring Him glory whether Greek, Yoruba or Jew.
(To be continued)
*Chevron is the how “Hebron” is pronounced in Hebrew and means “togetherness” or fellowship
It is all about Him… Hallelujah!

This is such an extravagant adornment of dusts that we are; puntuated by the revelation of the paradigm of value placed on us…
This can’t be said to be beautiful but beauty itself.
Each verse is a message on its own…. Well done for being attentive to the sounds of God.
