Fearless Daughter

I am fearless because of the gift of Christ, who conquered sin and defeated death upon the cross. Deuteronomy 31:6 "Be strong and of good courage, do not fear nor be afraid of them; for the LORD your God, He is the One who goes with you. He will not leave you nor forsake you." I am a daughter because of Psalm 68:5 "Father of the fatherless and protector of widows is God in his holy habitation."

When the Time Comes

When the time comes
and all fears have run
their course
and love alone remains
wiped away every stain
upon the cross
the course of history
forever changed
in the light of Jesus' name
when God above
returns in love
to make all things new
yes, even sinners too
what can complete
a life but the One
who set His feet
on earth to come
as one of us
he died for us
he was slain for us
and now he returns for us
OH let the trumpets resound
coming from the clouds
It is the New Jerusalem
The curtain of His return
pulled back forevermore
To exist without pain
OH Lord let that remain
a thought to heal this weary soul
who feels as though there is no more
hope or goodness in this today,
despite the reality that This is Your Day
You have made it, oh Lord,
and I will rejoice in it! (Psalm 118)
