You cannot snatch away…

The LORD says…

You demolish the Temple,
I shall restore it within three days!
You ruffle the whole world,
I will rebuild it in seven days!

You steal, I shall bestow seven times more!
You kill, I shall reinstate with eternal life!
You ruin, I shall adorn them with immortality!

You conceal, I will reveal!
You sink them in mud, I will lift them to the throne!
You drag them to the abyss, I shall exalt them high!
You shut one door, I shall open seven doors!

If you take them to the wilderness,
I will change it into grasslands;
If you let them wander in remote places,
I will change it into a Banquet Hall!

Even if you entrap them inside the bushes,
I will come in search of them as a good Shepherd;
If you try to swamp them in disease,
I will come as a healer!
If you bind them in sin,
I will come as a Saviour!
Even if they lay as dry bones,
I shall blow as the wind of life!

Even if death swallows them,
I shall carry the cross and climb over to Mount Golgotha
To open their tombs!
Even though they were destined to be slaughtered
I will grab them away as pillages!

If you send Pharaoh to seize them,
I will send Moses to redeem them!
If you send Goliath to threaten them,
I will send David to scorn him!
If you send the serpent to deceive them,
I will send my begotten Son to crush its head!

If you demolish,
I will send the apostles to rebuild;
If you blow lies,
I shall send my prophets to divulge the truth!

If you steal the sheep,
I shall send a shepherd to redeem it;
If you darken,
I will send the Evangelists with the light of Gospel;
If you stupefy my children,
I will send the teacher to make the fools wise!

I am God, there is none like me!
They are my people, the sheep of my pasture,
I earned them by giving my begotten Son,
How will I forget them?
How will I forsake them?
Who can snatch them out from my hand?
