House Groups Poem by Michael P. Johnson

House Groups

Rating: 5.0


Many a church may close their gate
Though ancient chapels die
Yet groups in houses escalate
Seeking God’s face on high


Intimate, with The living Christ
Constant within His sight
Righteous through innocence sacrificed
Standing within His Light


Houses of praise houses of prayer
Of facts of truth and light
Through which in Jesus everywhere
The groups can stand and fight


Serving their Saviour night and day
Living as saints before
Learning to walk that same Old Way
Toward The Father’s door


Faithful to One they’ve yet to see
Obedient through His love
Living in hope of things to be
Upon The Way above


Anointed by God’s nail pierced hand
Alive through second birth
Given by grace to understand
And spread the news on earth



Secrets! God veiled ere time began
Facts of His Lamb and Son
Spreading The Light to fellow man
That victory may be won


Through groups in houses great and small
United in one goal
Serving, loving, heeding The Call
To save another soul
