Lessons from Jacob
When God makes a promise
It never can fail
Tho’ the vessels He uses
Seem often, so frail.
Knowing God
Since the creation of man we have gone our own way. Disobeying our God, always wanting the last say.
In Awe of God
O, such undeserved favor
Overflowing from heaven
Such love for lost sinners
To cleanse out, our old leaven.
How Great is our God
We scarcely take in
The edge of His ways
The infinite One
Ancient Ruler of Days.
His Love Would Not Die
Was hung up to die
Know love, held Him there
Tho’ bleeding and dying
Was forgiving, in prayer.
His Grace is Sufficient
Amidst sorrows of suffering
And thorns of the flesh
Is God’s grace sufficient
Can we trust Him afresh?
His Eye is on the Sparrow
So, not bound up with worries
Over trials my way
His child am I
He leads, every day.
He is No Fool
Know, he is no fool
Who freely gives up
What he cannot save
To see God, fill his cup.
God’s Love
And so now, abide faith
And hope and love
But the greatest of these
God’s agape love, from above.
God’s Selfless Love
God’s love is patient
God’s love is kind
His love does not envy
Nor ‘self’ inclined.
