I look around at the world And often fear takes reign The end days are upon us Promising terror and pain Our God warns in His Word That our hearts will grow faint About false prophets among us Leading us astray He warns of famine Of pestilence and persecution But let's not forget He sent us His Son Jesus set the example Of what we're to do He led the way 2000 years ago He was insulted and flogged As the crazed crowd screamed He was teased and taunted As He hung on a tree All He ever said About the events of that day Was to keep watch and alert And to take time to pray Keep close to the Father Don't let your guard down It's His hand that will keep you From falling to the ground Yes our hearts will grow faint We're human you know But through the Grace of God We'll stand and we'll grow Peter was weak He denied Jesus times three But his love of Jesus Brought him to his knees He repented and grew strong He went on to become a rock This apostle so determined To tell of Jesus love Is an example to follow Don't let fear hold you back Hard times are upon us But we have nothing we lack Jesus is our strength He's our backbone our power Just keep always in prayer So you can face this hour It's upon us for sure And don't ever forget To spread the good news There's not a lot of time left The world needs God's love They need Jesus in their heart And it's through us who love Him Where they'll get their start Yes...faith comes by hearing So it's up to us To feed them God's word So they too can trust That the battle's been won 2000 years ago Jesus set the example Of what we're to do He is our strength He's our backbone our power Just keep always in prayer So you can face this hour Mary Silva August, 2004 Home Guest Book You can find the beautiful picture on the top in: Mackie's Treasures
