SINCE GOD REIGNS
Be courageous midst uncertainty!
Trust in God constantly along His sovereignty
Believe Him Who is the Source of eternal life’s bounty
Rely on His might as your steadfast soul-salvation’s security...
Surely, He will vanquish evil by His omnipotent authority.
Be dauntless despite seemingly bleak future!
Have faith in the Saviour with His compassion’s gesture
He is the good Shepherd Who leads toward grace-pasture
Against cravings offered by vain carnality and materialistic culture...
Truly, He will put to end terror of totalitarianism's torture.
Be steadfast in serving the Lord God!
Abide in Him and in His Word for His approval’s nod
Use the Spirit’s sword as well as steward’s faithfulness-rod
Follow His leading, walking upon servitude paths He earnestly trod...
Forever, He will govern along cheerful gentleness-prod.
Be faithful with the Father’s assurance!
Claim His spiritual abundance and peace-appearance
Keep on praying fervently, braced along faith’s endurance
While testifying about Christ’s love and mercy’s forbearance...
Eternally, He will let us feast around His abundance of no severance.
Be compassionate as love and peace you share!
Be a blessing to others with concern and care
Declare the Gospel* of redemption for souls’ welfare
For them to enjoy grand heavenly wealth, divinely rare...
Soon, He will welcome us to be with Him, delighting in His holy stare.
*Romans 1:16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth...
