The Gift
I always thank the Lord for you,
For a relationship so true;
Because Jesus Christ showed the way,
For how you to trust and obey.
You do show the good will of God,
The way that you honor and laud;
And through Jesus you are wealthy,
Being spiritually healthy.
You have rich knowledge in your mind,
And in speech of every kind;
Since Jesus Christ is verified,
In how He had been crucified.
But we know all about the gift,
Just how the Father did up lift;
And for us it will be the same,
While we remain true and proclaim.
Any gift you will never lack,
If you never start to slide back;
As you wait for to be revealed,
Within the book that has been sealed.
Jesus will keep giving you strength,
With persevering at any length;
For God is faithful in His promise,
In helping you through any crisis.
Who shall confirm you to the end,
Instead of as God but a friend;
And that you return with a gift,
That will give an eternal lift.
