Hope: a poem

Today I’ve just published a post – a poem – on our other blogsite http://www.kingdomheritageproductions.com

The full context is described on that site – Hope & Glory. But here is the poem:

HOPE


Hope, when we are weary and Hope, when we are down
We know that those who turn to God will wear His Victor’s crown
Our God will work all things to good, for those who know His love
And seek His Holy purposes; His guidance from above

No need to fear the future, uncertain though it seems
Our hope is in God’s promises; beyond our little dreams
His plans are so much greater, our future in His care
With God our days are certain, for He will take us there

“There” is where we’re meant to be; to prosper in His love
Protected from our enemy; watched over from above
“There”, living in His love and peace, and in His perfect will
We find that He was always “Hope” and know that He is, still

Our Father is eternal, with Him no shifting sands
Our Hope is everlasting, when held within His hands
So here and now we worship Him; our God the Three in One
The Hope of all creation; in Father, Spirit, Son

Lord Jesus, You’re our Living Hope; in coming here to earth
You sealed our Father’s perfect will by giving us new birth
And now that You’re within us, we have Your hope of Glory
Our future held within the One who wrote our lifetime story

All glory be to God on High, the only God who saves
Who keeps the earth in balance; who rules the restless waves
And knows each man and woman and sees each tiny flower
We worship and adore You; our Hope in every hour.

A Prayer

My prayer for you is:

“May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.”
‭‭Romans‬ ‭15‬:‭13‬ ‭NIVUK‬‬
