Alpha and Omega
by D. Buchanan

He Who, on creation's morning,   
   Gazing o'er time's ocean wide, Acts 15:18 
And, beyond, saw all creation   
   Through His ransom glorified; 1 Cor.15:28

He Who came by God's appointment,   
   Deeds of darkness to undo; 1 John 3:8 
Will He falter by the wayside?   
   Fail to reach the end in view? Eph.1:11 
     
He Who bears with faithless Israel, Hosea 11:8 
   Sparing not the chastening rod, Isa.1:5 
Woos her into glad submission, Rom.12:26 
   Is He not the Gentile's God? Rom.3:29

He Who said, "Until He find it," Luke 15:4 
   Will for some His word prove vain,   
And the faithful, seeking Shepherd   
   Foiled, return to God again. Isa.55:11 
     
Nay, our Lord is all victorious, 1 Cor.15:25 
   And His purpose is Love's best; 2 Tim.1:9 
Not to liberate a portion,   
   Leaving sin to hold the rest
 
Did the Christ go forth to battle: John 12:32 
   Scabbard ne'er His sword shall see,   
Until every blood-bought captive   
   Is from sin and death set free. Col.1:20 
     
Life your heads, ye heavenly portals!   
   Captives, pass beneath the rod!   
Every sin-cursed son of Adam   
   Has become a son of God, 1 Cor.15:22

Changed into the glorious likeness   
   Of His well beloved Son, 2 Cor.3:18 
This the fruit of grace abounding,   
   These the spoils in battle won. Rom.5:20 
     
Tune your harps, ye hosts of glory!   
   Let the vaulted heavens ring   
With the triumphs of our Saviour,   
   With the praises of the King! Rev.5:13 

Far and wide resounds the trumpet,   
   All creation now is free;   
Through the ages Christ hath wrought it,   
   Heaven and earth's glad jubilee. Lev.25:9,10 
     
Matchless riches of God's wisdom! Rom.11:33 
   Grace triumphant o'er the fall! Rom.5:20 
God is love, and by the ransom, 1 John 4:8 
   God, through Christ, is All in all. 1 Cor.15:28
