My Hope, in Christ

My Hope, in Christ

This is the day the Lord has made,

Take Comfort, and do not be afraid,

Our Father in Heaven rules from above,

And nothing can take away His Love!

 

 

 

Besides, His Mercies, like ointment poured

Will draw us closer to Christ, our Lord

And being Sovereign over all things,

The Promises flow from He Whom Life Springs!

 

For He has in mind our Ultimate Good,

Though often we children have mis-unders tood,

Because He made us from the earth's own dust,

But saved each one whom in Christ, will trust!

 

So, cheer up, soul, though tested and tried,

Just cast all your cares on Jesus, in stride,

And be assured, He's promised you Good,

And He will complete it, as only He could!

About the Poet
I am 64, a born-again Christian, and didn't write until 1974. My mother inspired me to write poetry, from an early age since she developed a deep love for poetry in my life. However it took years before I tried to write. My favorite subject to write about is my Savior, Jesus Christ, and religious subjects. I reside in Cleveland, Ohio.
