The Gateway
I've found the gateway to peace and contentment
for which I have searched many years.
I can find answers to life's many problems
and comfort for sorrow and tears.
I looked to myself for the strength that I needed
and came up short most of the time.
I tried to find joy in the world and it's pleasures
but found neither reason nor rhyme.
Now Christ is my hope and since I am His
He fills every part of my life.
He is the gateway to peace and contentment
my strength during turmoil and strife.
In Him is love, joy and compassion
in Him is salvation and grace,
So enter the gateway into His presence
and take ye your eternal place.
