Theme: Glorification

And those He justified, He also glorified — the final link in the golden chain of salvation is transformation into the complete image of Christ. Songs in this theme celebrate the eschatological horizon of the Christian life: the day still coming when what is mortal will put on immortality and the children of God will be fully revealed in glory. They give the congregation a vision of its own future that makes present suffering seem not worth comparing, connecting the ordinary worship service to the extraordinary destiny that awaits everyone in the room.
