Christ the beginning and Christ the end
“The Son
of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.”
Galatians
2:20
“Able to keep you from falling, and to present you
faultless before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy”
Jude 24
This Hath He done, and shall
we not adore Him?
This shall He do, and can we
still despair?
Come, let us quickly fling
ourselves before Him,
Cast at His feet the burden
of our care.
Flash from our eyes the glow
of our thanksgiving,
Glad and regretful,
confident and calm,
Then through all life and
what is after living,
Thrill to the tireless music
of a psalm.
Yea, thro’ life, thro’
death, thro’ sorrow and thro’ sinning
He shall suffice us, for He
hath sufficed:
Christ is the end, for
Christ is the beginning,
Christ the beginning, for the end is Christ.
F. W. H. Meyers - 1911
