FULNESS OF THE SPIRIT £ As the Ointment
|
|---|
|
| 1. | Where the sprinkling of the blood is, |
| | There the ointment doth remain; |
| | Man in touch with God thus bringing, |
| | These the fellowship maintain. |
| 2. | Blood, the emblem of redemption, |
| | Cleansing all the sins away; |
| | Ointment, symbol of the Spirit, |
| | Bringing God to man for aye. |
| 3. | Blood doth speak of what God worketh, |
| | Ointment, what He is for us; |
| | By His work and by His person |
| | God Himself is blent with us. |
| 4. | By the blood of Christ's redemption |
| | We are cleansed from all alloy; |
| | By th' anointing of the Spirit |
| | God Himself we may enjoy. |
| 5. | By the cleansing and anointing |
| | We with God are kept in one; |
| | By the blood and by the ointment |
| | God, our portion full, is won. |
| 6. | We in faith must claim the cleansing |
| | When we need the precious blood. |
| | Ever to obey th' anointing, |
| | Thus to live and walk with God. |
| 7. | God as light we'll then be knowing, |
| | God experience as love, |
| | And in God as life e'er growing, |
| | God as power we will prove. |
