Faith First, then Hope

Jesus Is Just Alright/ Song by The Doobie Brothers , 1972 --------------------------------------------------------------- " Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away." - Matthew 24:35, KJV -------------------------------------------------------------- Jesus is just alright with me Immorality is sin, He said, It is a sin even to this day Lust and anger sets you up It is a sin, so He said, It is a sin to this day Don't neglect the gifts of grace It is sloth that slows you down He said. It is sin, we know Envy and pride does no good Stealing life or dreams is bad Know the vices, learn virtues Jesus is just alright with me His sacrifice is not in vain He has taught us how to live life
