Looking For the Blessed Hope
God has sent His divine message
salvation by faith and grace alone
this has been sent to all mankind
for their sins Christ did atone
This I believe to effect me each day
living for Jesus He's my spiritual sight
taking His counsel walking at His side
His nearness my comfort future's bright
Scripture warns us to forsake worldly lusts
it will only draw you into it's prison cage
for hell is it's certain awful destination
run fast as you can from Satan's rage
Look upwards always in my godly walk
looking continually for my blessed hope
the glorious appearing of my dear Lord
what a great day, His loved ones to elope
Jesus Christ himself will return in glory
living here now looking for that mighty day
then to be united with my blessed saviour
come my Lord Jesus I can truly say!
(Titus 2:11-14 "For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men, Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world; Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ; Who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works. )
