462 God Eagerly Wants Those Who Can Carry Out His Will
Verse 1
As God’s work moved onward
and progressed ceaselessly through time,
after the rainbow covenant was established with man,
a sign that He would never again flood the world,
God wished even more for those who
could be of one mind with Him.
Chorus
God longs to gain those who understand His will,
know His disposition and worship Him.
Such a group of people, they are His confidants.
Such a group of people can bear testimony
to Him, to Him, to Him.
Verse 2
God was more eager for
those who could do His will on earth,
and those who were able to not be bound by Satan,
who could break away from the forces of darkness
and bear testimony to Him,
those who were able.
Chorus
God longs to gain those who understand His will,
know His disposition and worship Him.
Such a group of people, they are His confidants.
Such a group of people can bear testimony
to Him, to Him, to Him.
Bridge
God’s wished for such people, He’s waited so long.
Regardless of His flood and His covenant with man,
since creation, God’s hopes have remained same,
and so has His will, His mind, and His plan.
Chorus
God longs to gain those who understand His will,
know His disposition and worship Him.
Such a group of people, they are His confidants.
Such a group of people can bear testimony
to Him, to Him, to Him, to Him.
