MY COVENANT

The first Covenant God made was with Noah;

He was truly God’s man of the hour.

While the world became increasingly sinful;

Noah found grace and his Walk was meaningful.

 

He heard God’s Word of judgment and was alarmed;

His heart wanted to protect his loved ones from any harm.

He heeded God’s voice and built a mighty ark;

The imperative in His message he did hark.

 

Salvation came to Noah and his little family;

God promised He would bless his posterity.

In gratitude Noah offered a heartfelt sacrifice;

God received the offering all the way in Paradise.

 

He then gave to Noah a special Covenant;

The Lord would also bless His descendants!

We are the beneficiaries of God’s blessings;

Have we responded with grateful thanksgiving?
