Blessed Assurance
It’s often hard to hide,
The awful pain caused by pride.
So many times we allow ourselves to be fed,
By boisterous thoughts that causes swelling in our head.
For then is when we need to get humble and remember who we are,
And who it was that died to save us, the one that carries those scars.
He was always humble and obedient to do His Fathers will,
Even that day they crucified Him upon old Cavalry Hill.
Why did He allow Himself to suffer and die I’ve heard so many ask?
To save the souls of sinners was the purpose of this task.
He was the Sacrificial Lamb whose blood still cleanses today,
And if you haven’t received salvation, it’s to Jesus you need to pray.
Time is running short, the day of reckonings at hand,
If you’ve read any of the Bible, then you would understand.
When He returns there will be judgment upon the land,
Those that haven’t found salvation, need to rethink your stand.
Power, vanity, pride, and wealth won’t mean a single thing,
Jesus in your heart is the only assurance you can bring.
