Gospel Declaration

I come with the Gospel of Christ,
In a life that has sacrificed;
Through all the toils and the pain,
Taking me through snow sleet and rain.

I look out for an open door,
Even though I may not be sure;
If opportunity will knock,
Or if Satan will merely block.

I cannot let it be ignored,
In any chances for the Lord;
For all the people to have heard,
Of the Good News throughout the Word.

For salvation is now complete,
And we have a way to defeat;
Satan and all of our foes,
That causes all of our woes.

Praise to God who makes us strong,
The Father to whom we belong;
As His children to be someday,
In Heaven with Him come what may.
