I believe His grace surpasses all my need. My faith is in the blood of Christ, not some religious creed. When it comes to righteousness, I possess none- All I can claim, is that of God, the Son. I have found the Word of God provides indeed- All the sustenance and shelter that I need… There is cleansing in the Word as It’s applied- And assurance that for me a Savior died. All that’s going on I find was prophesied- Man’s arrogance, perversion, and his pride. Though the world may reel… I simply can’t despair- For I know that I am safely in His care. I believe He’s coming back just as He said- The trump will sound and it will raise the dead… We’ll drop this flesh and meet Him in the air- And see the place He promised to prepare. This world is not my home; for this I’m glad- For all I see and hear, my friend, is bad- This world is ruled by vile and evil scum- I can fervently agree… Lord Jesus, Come! |
