LANTERNS OF FAITH, HOPE, GRACE AND LOVE
Faith drives toward triumphant crest
Championing trust against doubt’s pest
To conquer failures during test
Healing pain’s grief with prayer-zest
For souls to be joyously blest.
Hope brings comfort with vibrant glow
Smiting fear of attacking woe
Midst peace to face tomorrow
Gladly welcoming blessings’ flow
Sharing against selfishness-blow.
Grace* pours down heavenly treasure
Enriching with divine pleasure
To bask in spiritual leisure
Yon wealth of celestial measure
And worthy material pressure.
Love keeps hearts in kindness-delight
Upholding mankind with truth’s light
In respect for what’s good and right
Regarding others midst their plight
While reaching-out, led by God’s might.
*2 Timothy 2:1 Thou therefore ... be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus.
