Welcome to Day 3 of Part 7′s Chapter 1 of Arise and Shine. Today, Anna is bringing forward the third free will offering of onyx stones and other gem stones.

You speak
Of new wineskins
Of the old that has gone
The new that has come.
Oh, let us taste
Of Your holiness
In the Son of glory's
Overshadowing.
In the darkness
Of Your covering
Let us find hidden
Treasures gleaming.
Oh let us savor the sweet
Honey of Your Word
Not hoarding but
In heaven's dew bestowing.
Let all else now
Be ashes to ashes
Flame your righteousness
In gemstones aglow.
As we seek a firm footing
In this shaking and breaking
Shod Your Good News
To our feet in the waiting.
Oh make us ready
A new heart of flesh
In our weakness lay bare
Into heaven's glory sowing.
Let the latter rains
In Your breaking clouds
Gush and pour, the seed
In living waters growing.
Make room in our hearts
For one another
Move us ever forward
Into Your heart's blooming.
Let us, Your family of stars
Arise and shine
In the light of Your face
Calling all: come!
Let each stone
In Spirit 'n truth breathe
Alive in Your intercession
A Living Temple: whole.
Shoulder to shoulder
Into Your Kingdom
Come Jesus come
Carry us over the threshold:
Now One.
