Spiritual Growth, Latter Deeds Greater

[Spiritual Growth, Latter Deeds Greater]

[Verse1]
Cling not to past glories, the present holds the key
Latter deeds must shine brighter, in eternal decree
Repel Jezebel's whispers, on repentance's path we flee
God's justice laced with love, in patient mercy

[Chorus]
Oh Lord, bestow spiritual growth divine
Latter works surpassing, sanctity's bloom refine
Perfected souls attaining Christ's full stature shine
Racing toward salvation, in glory's design

[Verse2]
Heed rebuke in praise, circumcise the heart anew
Forsake idol worship, truth's pursuit pursue
Shun self-proclaimed prophets' lure, in light's pure view
In great tribulation's shadow, fervent prayers renew

[Chorus]
Oh Lord, bestow spiritual growth divine
Latter works surpassing, sanctity's bloom refine
Perfected souls attaining Christ's full stature shine
Racing toward salvation, in glory's design

[Verse3]
Unity in faith and knowledge of God's Son we seek
Mature in wholeness, reaching heights unique
Shunning stagnation, hope's blossoms peak
In God's love eternal, forever meek

[Chorus]
Oh Lord, bestow spiritual growth divine
Latter works surpassing, sanctity's bloom refine
Perfected souls attaining Christ's full stature shine
Racing toward salvation, in glory's design

[Verse4]
Like Thyatira praised yet warned in solemn tone
Probing deeds and hearts, rewards as seeds sown
Longsuffering grace opens paths unknown
Escaping doom, in glory enthroned

[Chorus]
Oh Lord, bestow spiritual growth divine
Latter works surpassing, sanctity's bloom refine
Perfected souls attaining Christ's full stature shine
Racing toward salvation, in glory's design

[Verse5]
Cast off past sins, embrace transformation's fire
Eyes opened spiritually, discern Satan's deep mire
As God's beloved children, in light's attire
Toward eternal life, with fervor aspire

[Chorus]
Oh Lord, bestow spiritual growth divine
Latter works surpassing, sanctity's bloom refine
Perfected souls attaining Christ's full stature shine
Racing toward salvation, in glory's design

[Verse6]
In end times' awakening, faith's introspection deep
Spiritual ascent prepares for the Lord to keep
In divine blessings, perfected we leap
Before heaven's throne, eternal praises reap

[Chorus]
Oh Lord, bestow spiritual growth divine
Latter works surpassing, sanctity's bloom refine
Perfected souls attaining Christ's full stature shine
Racing toward salvation, in glory's design
