His Rest and Peace

Our life’s full of troubles
Tribulations, each day
Yet instead of our resting
We keep struggling, our way.

As God’s precious own
We always, are blessed
We are never alone
Amidst trials, that test.

For His compassions, fail not
They are new each morning
Great is Your faithfulness
The LORD, is my portion.

Keep God’s Word, in our heart
Cry out to God, and resist
Resolve, I will obey
The Holy Spirit, will assist.

So, listen with faith
Trusting God cannot fail
For in wisdom and love
He will always prevail.

Tho’ many called, few are chosen
The self-righteous, are cast out
Into outer darkness
All the unclean, not allowed.

So we’re self-willed, self-reliant
Self-righteous, we blindly stray
Are defiant, independent
We want the last say.

Yes, those bugs and frustrations
God allows, each our way
Are to get our attention
Cause us turn, and obey.

Yes, if we step out in faith
And walk in His Spirit
Believing, not doubting
His Word, He fulfils it.

And should our feet, and road seem hid
Those times are truly sweet
When all we have, is God alone
To guide our steps, oft’ steep.
