Praise the Father of our Lord, Great mercy giving us new birth; So we can be in one accord, While living on planet earth. We have been born into new life, In confidence which is alive; Although we have to cope with strife, Until Jesus Christ does arrive. A new life that we have been born, Which does have an inheritance; Being saved while we sojourn, That is building your confidence. It cannot be destroyed or fade, Corrupted or formed any way; Never that will it be decayed, And will never cause you to stray. It will be given up in Heaven, As it is guarded by the Lord; Once you enter it is given, A gift that cannot be ignored. Through your faith for a salvation, That is ready to be revealed; At the time of celebration, When the end of time will be unsealed. You will be so extremely glad, About these things in the future; No longer a need to be sad, For becoming a new creature. Even though you have to suffer, Of different kinds of trouble; The Lord will help you to buffer, As you sift through all the rubble. The purpose of this is to test, Of your faith like genuine gold; So precious in doing your best, As the years and days will unfold. Although you never have seen Christ, You always show love and respect; The faith why He was sacrificed, With belief you do not reject. Copyright © 2016 Richard Newton Sherrer Vote for this poem
