Fruit in old age

Following our call
in each season
more to do
as the Spirit calls

Fruit in old age
as surely as in springtime
God will lead us
if we submit to Him

Never Too Old

Strength from the Lord
The calling of our master
new tasks to perform
gifts, fruits to share

Never too old
to begin a new world
God stirring inside of us
changing our lives,
conformed to his will
doing what we are called to do

God will provide
all that we need
trust in his loving hand
there by our side in all of our trials
in him rest when the work is done
