It sounds like so much danger
An ominous invitation
To come into His presence
After testing Gods’ own patience
A threat? Or just a promise?
Onto our children’s kin
That parents aren’t the only ones
Impacted by their sin
We will all inherit
Choices made by those before
And from us to our grandchildren
A path we cannot ignore
Moses understood
The patient Love of God
And in the midst of all the heavy words
He includes an encouraging nod
The truth that we inherit something
God has committed onto stone
So Moses helped us remember
Who sits upon the throne.
He who proclaims such heavy words
About what children will receive
Calls us His own children,
If we will only believe…
