Your Deep Faith – v4



In loving memory of them
the teacher in this warm message
the letter sent out to his son
an affirmation of his faith

Grounded in these two women
his mother and grandmother
They instilled in him passion
a reverence for his faith

Your deep faith I too remember
women in my life, around me
grounding me in the living water
in the way you walk(ed) each day

I want to share their legacy
the message they passed on
love of our Creator, the Spirit within
and the amazing grace of the Savior

Leading me to pass on, to sow seeds
lessons I have learned, I cherish;
living as a servant, a witness
a believer in the Lord

The one way to salvation, to glory,
through the narrow gate of Jesus
yet joy as on that first Easter morning
our Savior, risen, in victory
showing us the way to the Father
God’s gift of eternity
