Endorse the Course

Endorse the Course Why was it God's work we would never heed When with Him we should be so well-agreed Ran short of time to avoid the swift stampede Knowing it is loving Lord who we now need. My Savior should it have always been I That no matter how hard will ever try All of my sins at home had stopped by Causing me much anguish and also to cry. Dead, kind body on Cross was bitter sweet Removed all nails from wrist and both feet Covered Christ's body with a clean sheet And one day soon again His Father will meet. Cruelly on cross His life ceased and would expire And He arose towards heaven higher and higher We were left with many straits seeming so dire Our hearts burned inside like fire on a pyre. We became frantic with new-found remorse As God's Son returned to His original source Jesus wants us all to walk on His true course Believe in Him and everything he will endorse.
