KEEPING FAITH

When trouble runs me down and rumbles fill my life
When problems become sand and disappointment turn to water
So that I can hardly walk or drink,
When it seems like my efforts are
Useless and mu abilities are in doubt,
I will fly neither to the moon nor to the stars
But move up higher into the region
Of faith in the pain I shall find fame,
And in the disappointment,
I shall find appointments
For I have a wonderful God that shall
Make all things well for me…

AN EXCHANGE

What a mighty God we serve,
What a great king we have,
What a bounty gift He gave,
The gift of His only son,
To die for a fallen race,
Seeking that which was lost,
for the benefit of the lost,
It was an exchange!
A life for a life…

Right on a tree
His son wriggled in pain
Taking my place,
Soothing my pain,
Erasing my sins,

Calling my name,
Jesus, my saviour, my joy, my hope…
Right now, the decision is up to me,
Accepting His sacrifice of love or
Seeking my own futile ways…
