Songs of Love 2:211

【May You See the Good of the Church All Your Life】

1 For all your life may you see the good of the church.

Be root’d in God’s household.

Flourish in the church.

May they prosper who love You,

O’those who love the church.

O’ may the Lord bless you from His household.

2 For all your life may you see the good of the church.

O’God’s abode of rest is also my rest.

If I forget you, o’church, let me utter no word.

God’s most glorious purpose is my vision.

3 The church is God’s purpose, the hope of the world.

God’s most glorious purpose is my meaning of life.

The Lord has sent His church to accomplish His will.

May you desire the church for all your life,

Build His church, live out God’s family.

【Exodus 35:21-26, 34-35】

21 And they came, everyone whose heart stirred him, and everyone whose spirit moved him, and brought the LORD's contribution to be used for the tent of meeting, and for all its service, and for the holy garments.

22 So they came, both men and women. All who were of a willing heart brought brooches and earrings and signet rings and armlets, all sorts of gold objects, every man dedicating an offering of gold to the LORD.

23 And every one who possessed blue or purple or scarlet yarns or fine linen or goats' hair or tanned rams' skins or goatskins brought them.

24 Everyone who could make a contribution of silver or bronze brought it as the LORD's contribution. And every one who possessed acacia wood of any use in the work brought it.

25 And every skillful woman spun with her hands, and they all brought what they had spun in blue and purple and scarlet yarns and fine twined linen.

26 All the women whose hearts stirred them to use their skill spun the goats' hair.

34 And he has inspired him to teach, both him and Oholiab the son of Ahisamach of the tribe of Dan.

35 He has filled them with skill to do every sort of work done by an engraver or by a designer or by an embroiderer in blue and purple and scarlet yarns and fine twined linen, or by a weaver--by any sort of workman or skilled designer.
