No Matter What Happens

No matter what happens, 
We must always be obedient; 
Like the kind of attitude shown
By Christ the Lord whom God sent.

The Son did what His Father wanted, 
For He was humble till the last breath; 
He took the cup of suffering, 
All the way to the cross of death.

As faithful followers of the Lord, 
We must endure anguish and pain; 
Though we may lose life on earth, 
The long, lasting one we shall gain.

When we abide by the Father's word, 
We shall live in peace and harmony; 
But by not glorifying His name, 
Ours is life put in jeopardy.

Come crises after another, 
God is our refuge and defense; 
Never stop serving the Father, 
No matter what happens.
