Num 6:24-26

This is the second song I've written from Ephesians 1:3-6 from the Recovery Version of the Bible. My first attempt was while in Bible college at Southwestern Assemblies of God College in Waxahachie, TX, in 1978. This was written in Arlington, TX, in about 2015. This was practiced and finally recorded in my living room with young people (college students) who came to our home every evening on the Lord's Day to eat with us and sing. We never did quite get it perfect. This song was intended to fill a typical gap in the worship of the Father at the Lord's Table meeting.

Blessings of the Father (Eph 1:3-6)

I handed myself over to the Lord Jesus Christ, just about 1 week prior to my 10th birthday after some struggle. My father was a good preacher, but I still was not clear what I was supposed to do, or who I was supposed to be, as a Christian. Through a circuitous path the Lord guided me to know I have a spirit, that He lives there, that I can live there, too, and then He began to open His heart to me, as He has done with so many others, to see His eternal plan to produce a corporate entity for Himself by growing within human beings — a divine-human corporate Body — consummating in His Bride, richly typified as the city of New Jerusalem at the end of the Bible. My songs are snapshots of my experience and enjoyment along this path going on 6 decades. Many will know the sentiment and even recognize their scenes from their own journey, while most will not know what this ballad of my life is all about. He is writing on me, as He is on all His own, "…a new name…,which no one knows except him who receives it." (Revelation 2:17) "And they sing a new song before the throne and before the four living creatures and the elders; and no one could learn the song except the hundred and forty-four thousand, who have been purchased from the earth." (Revelation 14:3)
