From Colossians 1:4-5: “For we have heard of your faith in Christ Jesus and of the love that you have for all the saints, because of the hope laid up for you in heaven. You have heard of this hope before in the word of the truth, the gospel that has come to you.”
Faith in Jesus Christ
Rising with hope’s clear light
Love descends from Heaven
Fulfilling mercy’s flight
Faith speaks through God’s Word
Nourishing truth each day
Whisper of light to trust
Breathing hope, never gray
Faith targets saint’s heart
Sowing each faithful seed
Spirit nurtures each one
Blessing how hope shall feed
Faith’s patient journey
Praying to Lord above
Strengthened steps persevere
Uniting with hope’s love
Faith’s kingdom shall come
Redeeming with love’s grace
Father, Son, and Spirit
Offering hope’s embrace
From Colossians 1:12-13: “Giving thanks to the Father, who has enabled you to share in the inheritance of the saints in the light. He has rescued us from the power of darkness and transferred us into the kingdom of His beloved Son.”
