Lord, I love You more today, even more tomorrow I’ll share with You my joy and gladness and my pain and sorrow As You live inside of me, conform me to Your will Expectantly I wait before You… listening… hopeful… still Like a bird that flutters down, hope fills up my soul I know the plans You have for me are surely wonderful It is faith that tells me so and I do believe Even the bad works for my good, both I will receive I don’t want to waste the time You’ve given me on earth In the face of opposition, I will declare Your worth For those lost in sin and darkness, let me shine Your light In the battles for Your truth I volunteer to fight There is no place for hope and faith when I walk Heaven’s Hall Only on the fallen earth can I answer Heaven’s call Now to be victorious, now to help someone Now to sacrifice for God, His battles to be won Every moment a precious gift I’ll never have again To share salvation with the lost or bear reproach of men The place for all these things is here, my faith put to the test I’ll have eternity to enjoy, a place of promised rest Debbie Furey October 26, 2019 2 Corinthians 4:16-18 – “Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. 17 For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. 18 So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.” Romans 8:18-30 John 4:34-38 Isaiah 60 and 61
