God has called us for His purpose

1
God has called us for His purpose,
His economy so glorious,
For which He was fully processed;
Consummated now is He!
As the Spirit, He indwells us;
As our God allotted portion,
Working out His full salvation,
Making us the same as He is.
 
Oh, may a clear, controlling vision of
The Lord’s economy direct my heart,
And burn in me until my spirit’s wholly set afire!
With spirit strong and active we’ll press on
To consummate God’s goal—
New Jerusalem, Hallelujah!
2
Jesus lived the God-man pattern,
Set the way for us to follow,
He denied His natural man and
Was obedient unto death,
Once He was the only God-man;
Now we are His duplication.
As the many grains we’re blended
As His corporate reproduction.
3
Living out His resurrection,
Dying to the flesh and soul-life.
Living by the mingled spirit,
Natural man we will deny.
Now we’re living in the Body,
Every day we’re overcoming,
Striving for the peak of Zion,
Watching for our Lord’s appearing.
4
God and man will have one living,
Always in the mingled spirit;
We two are incorporated
One organic entity!
This the vision of the ages
Will control our daily living
That the Lord may have His Body
Shining as the holy city.

As I am sitting in the library, waiting for 6 more hours of classes, this song reminded me the purpose of my human life.

My education is not my goal, neither is money, career nor just a "good life".

I've been predestinated before the foundation of the world, and in time I have been saved and called by the wonderful processed consummated Triune God for His heart desire and good pleasure, to become His expression for the satisfaction of God and man, which will be the New Jerusalem!

Hallelujah!!

"Oh, may a clear, controlling vision of

The Lord's economy direct my heart,

And burn in me until my spirit's wholly set afire!

With spirit strong and active we'll press on

To consummate God's goal—

New Jerusalem, Hallelujah!"

I've JUST known that there's an English version for this song..^^ The first i knew was the Indonesian version, and then i tried to learn the Chinese version, but is still too difficult for me. Thank God, He has called me for His purpose. May He add His mercy on me so that i'll be able to cooperate with Him to answer this calling. I think i need to memorize this song..
