BE AN ENCOURAGEMENT

be an encouragement 
to your fellow man 
tell them of the firm foundation 
on which you now stand 

be an encouragement 
lift up a lost soul 
Inspire someone to go out 
and achieve their goals 

be a help and not a hindrance 
be a source of strength 
be a buoy and not an anchor 
a life raft with good intent 

be an encouragement 
lift up a lost soul 
Inspire someone to go out 
and achieve their goals 

God is in control 
He has our best interests in mind 
God is on patrol 
and restoration in Him we will find 
for God encourages 
God reassures 
through Him there's salvation 
that's been fully insured 

so be an encouragement 
lift up your fellow man 
help them onto that firm foundation 
on which you now stand 

be an encouragement 
lift up a lost soul 
Inspire someone to go out 
and achieve their goals
