God's Faith

Giver of life and hope and all, give more
Of your faith to me, repair me broken
Dangling between fall and your call, restore
Salvation's light on the path to heaven

Father, may I your seal heart written wear 
Atonement taken and each blood drop, pray,
Invoke in me love's presence, make me share, 
Transformed, your image, spirit freed from clay.
Holy Giver, give me of grace the more.

In a human economy, Nigel, we meet disapproval or approval, and work for acceptance. In God's love we are condemned for nothing (1 John 3:20), and we have everything to gain by the restoring power of love's redemption. You are one of his favored child too, for the more we fear or fear rebels it is the more grace he provides.One love
