Children of Light

(October 4, 2025)


 




 The Lord has said
Intelligence is light and truth.
I have no proof,
But it seems to me
That is how we came to be.
A spark of light eons ago
Became a spirit child of God.
Born of our Eternal Father
And Heavenly Mother too.
With Them we did live
Until we were sent to earth
Into this mortal life to by birth.
All that went before we did forget,
On our path we were set
To find our way back to Him.
Within us is that same light,
The Light of Christ,
To tell us wrong from from right.
Along the way we would sin
Unable to return to Him again.
But there was a plan,
All the human race to span.
A Savior our Father did provide
To suffer, bleed, and die
That we may cross the great divide.
Mercy, Grace, and Justice too
Do combine to save me and you
If we chose to follow Him
And return once again
To our Heavenly home
With our loved ones
Who came before
And those yet to come,
When our live is o’er
To inherit the mansions
Where we will dwell.
For this is His work and glory
To bring to pass our immortality
And eternal life
In His Kingdom free from strife,
To be an heir with His Son
and hear Him say,
My good and faithful servant,
Well done!
