God's Greatest Desire Is You!

God's greatest desire is you, Transcending time and space, To love you with a love that's true, Anointing you with grace... Like sunshine warms the flowers That blossom in the glow, Consider all God's powers, Forever more to know... God's greatest desire is you, Both now and ever more, Grant credit where credit is due, With worship to adore... Like rainbows kissing mountains, Like eagles circling still, The Lord above seeks faithful friends To walk within His will... God's greatest desire is you, Throughout the livelong day, Much more, if you but knew, Beyond the words you pray... Like precious psalms that honour Him, Your heart was born to love, That's why God fills it to the brim And yet that's not enough... God's greatest desire is you, Freewill is but the start, It's grace that helps you through, No longer far apart... Like silver stars God helps you see, Cross galaxies on high, God fills you with His majesty, He melts you with a sigh... God's greatest desire is you, For friendship so sublime, That's not just for the chosen few That stand the test of time... Like faith that builds tomorrow, From nothing more than trust, Reflect on joy not sorrow, From promises discussed... God's greatest desire is you, The Saviour paid the price, The King who died for every Jew To grant them Paradise... Like helping Gentiles to be saved, God's grace is good as gold, That's why they're baptised, washed and bathed, Accepted in His fold... God's greatest desire is you, Forgiveness here and now, His Royal Pardon ever new, Eternal Life His vow... Like diamonds glistening in the sun And snowflakes Christmas Day, God's love for you has just begun With more along the way... Denis Martindale, copyright, June 2013. The poem is based on the Daystar Gospel channel, as it expresses God's love throughout the centuries from Adam and Eve, to the present day and in His future promises contained in the Bible prophecies.
