The Cup, the Cross, the Crown

So, do drink your cup
Trust God, and obey
He is with you, midst sufferings
Know He’s present, always.

Know our days upon earth
Our stewardship of time
All our talents and treasures
Belong to the Divine.

This Christmas, remember
The gift that God gave
His beloved dear Son
To seek and to save.

May the LORD increase
In my life, day by day
And may I decrease
I earnestly pray.

And while God offers good
Temptation brings evil
Understanding our choice
Be His righteous people.

Therefore, welcome your trials
Your waiting, and suffering
Since God is perfecting
Become His fragrant offering.

For the God who solved sin
Thro’ sending His Son
Can certainly solve
His children’s problems.

Not to let God’s Word
Depart from their heart
But, teach to their offspring
Be diligent, to guard.

So, our God allows trials
That our faith be tenacious
Great faith, be made complete
To be perfected, need patience.

So, we likewise must repent
Of rebelling, and sleeping
We should rather, seek God
Not self-serving, but reaping.
