The Book of Remembrance
Richard Newton Sherrer 1951 (Easton)
Those who fear the Lord,
Speak to each other;
No one is ignored,
That has heard their brother.
The Lord has heard them,
As written in the book;
He will not condemn,
That has not forsook.
He recalls your name,
Those that do revere;
And goes to proclaim,
Who has been sincere.
We are His treasure,
On that day who serves;
Goodness to measure,
Bestows who deserves.
Show the difference,
Between the righteous;
And the arrogance,
That He serves justice.
