Beyond The Veil

Beyond The Veil

I recall the day I accepted Christ
It's now been many years ago
I've studied His Word along the way
Attempting His message to bestow

There have been hills and valleys
As along this path I've trod
I've learned to cling to His promises
And let Him be my staff and rod

Some things I do not understand
By faith, I must rely on His Word
And trust that His plan is best
When various issues seem blurred

It's as a veil obstructs my view
Making it hard to comprehend
But when I study Psalm seventy three
Verse seventeen, will my anxiety end

I know that soon, the day will come
I'll lay this earthly mantle down
Now, I find consolation in the fact
Then, I'll be homeward bound

A veil will no longer obstruct my view
Then, I'll meet Him face to face
That which is faith, will then be fact
Because of His "Amazing Grace"
