Beverly’s Hills

Richard Groff 1957 (Pottstown, Pa.)



The children of God are His precious elite.
They fall down and worship at His holy feet.
Your family are those who are doing His will.
Not those of the world who are lying dead still.

Welcome each child as your Father adopts them.
Don’t stand in their way because no one should stop them.

Do not hold on to the things that aren’t yours.
Instead let them go and find peace on His shores.
For this you were made and then were made new.
Don’t grieve the Holy Spirit because He is true!
