Faith Etched in Stone

John 17:20-23

My prayer is not just for only them alone,
Rather for all having faith etched in stone;
May all be one with our Heavenly Father,
Consider each other as sister and brother;
We are family since the Son was sacrificed,
Because of faith in the one who sent Christ;
The glory given to Him has been imparted,
So all who believe shall be tenderhearted;
May it become clear to all as being loved,
Because of the price paid by God's beloved;
Keep following the footprints in the sand,
To the exact place where Christ does stand.
Having knowledge though the world has not,
Remembering as the Scriptures have taught;
God is caring and compassionate and kind,
For He has made me see where I was blind;
He has open my ears to hear as He speaks,
My mind opens to Him whatever it seeks;
Our Heavenly Father shines His light on me,
As my faith is etched in stone as a decree.
