Proof that I was right To trust in God’s kind light Without giving in to sin Living for the One who lives within Proof that I knew the truth By living for God, even in my youth Without letting go of His hand Knowing Him better was just as I’d planned Proof that I was wise That pandemic always implies It isn’t something to ignore or deplore But something to remind you it is God you adore Proof that I have all I need within Where my trust and faith always begin Reminding me that there is eternity and love Sent down from the one who lives up above Proof that this virus can’t control me Even though it’s horrible – with that I agree It cannot take away my belief in the Lord Of that I’m sure most of us are of one accord Proof that I love beyond my own will With kindness and hope that will give a thrill Teaching the ones I meet that love is at my core And light from my very heart will always outpour Proof that my philosophy on life hasn’t changed too much Is in the confidence that I live better because of His touch He answers all my prayers and keeps my spirit calm and sure That His guidance, grace and mercy will help me to always endure Proof that this epidemic can’t take away my God Is found in the feeling of hope in which I am awed His love is a miracle, a blessing and the answer to fears That remind me He will help me get through all the tears Never give up and never give in to the anxieties that come From the uncertainty surrounding this disease and its outcome Always listen to your heart and the breath of God’s promise Don’t give up and let your soul turn into a doubting Thomas!

great philosophy to have. We should not fear it. This is what they want. To make us afraid.
