Good and Faithful

I've never seen an angel.
I seldom hear your voice.
But I know you sent Jesus
to offer us all a choice.

I know I've felt your glory.
I've felt your mercy and peace.
I know you're writing a story
about how much you love me.

I've never seen an angel.
I don't have to to know you're real,
because I can feel you beside me
taking away my fear,
giving me peace,
showering me
with your mercy and grace.
And when one day
I see you face-to-face,
I hope you'll say
that I ran my race
to the fullest.
"Well done,
good and faithful servant."
