Gone Is the Past

Rainbows and roses, 
   discouragement ,strife.
It's all a part of
   walking with Christ.
Good times and bad times
   smiles of frowns,
God is right there
   He won't let you down.
Loving and caring
   through wrong  and through right
Jesus walks with you 
   bright day or dark night
He holds your hand 
   as you journey along
Through vally so deep
   and turbulance strong.
On mountain top high
   when you're filled with glee
In barren dry places,
   rejected , decieved.
He is right there
   He'll always remain.
He'll comfort you
   through sorrow and pain.
When everything perfect
   and life's full of song,
When you pull away
   His love remains strong.
He will keep wooing 
   and drawing you back
And His Spirit within
   withstands Satans attack.
Give Him your life,
   surrender your heart,
He'll mend all the breaks
   and never depart.
If you are His,
   His love will last.
Look to the future,
   Gone is the past.
