Walking on this
earth
following our path
the way of Christ,
guided by the cross.
Knowing in our
hearts
in spite of our
doubts
peace within us
growing as we walk.
Even in storms, in
trials,
our troubles day to
day
confident in our Savior
in the love of God.
A home for us
at the end of the
journey
the struggles of
life
for the building of
our wisdom.
Discerning God’s
path
to recognize our
joy
we have a place
already
set for us in Paradise.
A home for us
when we are called
from this life,
able to walk the
streets of gold
standing face to
face with God.

Courage
for These Days
Hope
in our Lord
the
future that he promised
courage
for these days
while
we toil here on earth
Courage
to follow Jesus
on
the servant’s path
to
help our neighbors
out
of your boundless love
Courage
to heed
the
Spirit’s callings
stepping
out in faith
to
do our loving part
Love
to mend
offering
his peace
living
by his example
that
all may know Christ
Words
to speak
across
the world
testifying
to his power
that
all will hear the good news
Taking
up our cross
using
our gifts in his service
courage
in these days
while
we toil here below
