I thank Jesus Christ our Lord,
To whom we have loved and adored;
As God who is righteous and just,
Has appointed me giving trust.
He appointed me sow the seeds,
Where Satan has been growing weeds;
Although it seems like a big task,
All He had to do was come ask.
Maybe you ask just how this can be,
But the strength He has given me;
Tells the truth with being sincere,
And the truth makes me persevere.
I have had cursed Him in the past,
But those times can never outlast;
The love and mercy that He shows,
Allowing blessings to flow.
I know that I persecuted Him,
And never feeling any vim;
For I acted arrogantly,
And not very confidently.
Ignorant in my unbelief,
I needed spiritual relief;
Our Lord God was very kind,
Showed me mercy to ease my mind.
Through kindness He brought me to hope,
With hope which will build faith to cope;
Till the Lord descends from Heaven,
As the trumpet sound was given.
Then as our Lord in the cloud,
Seeing each of us in the crowd;
Plucks us up floating in the air,
And always be with Him to share.
