He Promised

In God's Word, many promises abound To those who put their trust in Him Resting upon what He has proclaimed He will guide us when the way is grim He promised, those who seek shall find And a door is opened, if we but knock It's the Father's pleasure To give the kingdom, to the little flock He promised, the labourer and heavy laden Rest for their weary soul And that the humble, shall be exalted When true commitment, is their goal He promised, to never leave or forsake Those devoted to His plan A lamp to our feet - a light to our path Guiding us throughout life's span He promised, that all who come to Him Will not be a castaway Giving assurance, to the faint-of-heart When the adversary, would lead astray He promised, that if for His purpose We are called, and abide in Him All things work, together for our good At times when choices seem so slim He promised, that no temptation Will be greater than we can bear But an escape route it shall provide Delivering us from the tempter's snare He promised, that when walking through The valley of the shadow of death No evil I will have to fear When I am taking that final breath Colan L Hiatt = 09-12-13 © All Rights Reserved
