Assuming that you have heard,
Of the stewardship of grace;
Because of God and His Word,
Has been given to embrace.
How the mystery made known,
To you by revelation;
That the Lord in having shown,
By giving you salvation.
You can perceive my insight,
In the mystery of Christ;
In helping you see the light,
Why the Lord was sacrificed.
It was not known to the sons,
From other generations;
Has been revealed to the ones,
Given through declarations.
To the holy apostles,
And prophets by the Spirit;
Over time that one jostles,
Performing righteous merit.
Mystery for fellow heirs,
The same body of members;
That everybody shares,
Of the Spirit led embers.
Because the promise of Christ,
As revealed in the Gospel;
As a gift that has enticed,
Great power to His people.
I am the least of the saints,
This grace that has been given;
But never having complaints,
Of wealth flowing from Heaven.
I bring to light for each one,
As planned for the mystery;
Ages hidden about the Son,
Created through history.
Through the church that manifold,
The wisdom of God made known;
The heavenly places unfold,
The authorities have shown.
For the eternal purpose,
To know that Christ is the Lord;
We need a moral compass,
And remain in one accord.
