Covenant Brothers

While seeking the Lord for opportune grand,
God granted a wish come true by His hand-
And in due process He added a friend,
Covenant brothers, we'll be til the end!

For truly we share a bond of pursuit,
To chase after God and show forth His fruit-
Our crossing of paths was not happenstance,
God granted to both of us a new chance!

To see if indeed the heart could be pure,
Along with clean hands to do His work sure-
If so, then to stand in His holy place,
Daily be filled with unwavering grace!

As time marches on, may we so be found
Doing His bidding on unfertile ground-
Unfeigned in our labors, sowing His seed,
Showing His light to a dark world in need!

So covenant brothers, take a stand now,
No time to turn back, just hold to the plow-
Follow the leader, yes trust and obey,
This could be the dawn of a brand new day!
