The Word of God

 
 
   
There’s nothing, outside the word of God,    
Will make me believe in another way.    
To deny Him when Death’s at my door,    
Is to forsake all the love He’s shown me.    
    
I’ve felt and heard the Lord by my side,    
When I embrace life, when I am at rest.    
His lessons I live as years go by,    
For the moment I join Him in Heaven.    
   
In the past you were full of darkness,    
but now you are full of light in the Lord.    
So live like children    
who belong to the light.    
   
As for God, His way is perfect;    
the word of the LORD is proven;    
He is a shield to all who trust in him.    
   
We are hard pressed on every side,    
but not crushed;    
perplexed, but not in despair;    
persecuted, but not abandoned;    
struck down, but not destroyed.
   
   
I’ll let His words be my guiding light,    
When it’s time for my eternal journey.    
As I am prepared by them with prayer,    
To then welcome this faithful one home.
