Poetry

---

If you then have been raised with Christ,
Seek all the things that are above;
Never to be earthly enticed,
And seated at the right hand thereof.

Christ sits on the right hand of God,
Your mind sets on things from above;
Things upon the earth not to laud,
Guide yourself in heavenly love.

For you are dead, your life is hid,
And your life hides with Christ in God;
From the things that you had backslid.
Previously caused to be flawed.

When Christ who is your life appears,
Then you will appear in glory;
As He will wipe away your fears,
Being acquitted by His jury.
