Overwhelming with darkness
Tomorrow’s vision unseen
Out of life’s impossible
Wondering what faith will mean
Calvary’s light beams ahead
Today offers blessed place
Possible waiting in view
Powering toward Christ’s grace
Prince of Peace offers his hand
Hour of hope at last arrives
Redemption shall be fulfilled
Seeing faith coming alive
Bitter sorrow fades away
In Christ, mercy filled with love
Answers to prayer’s journey
Touching Spirit high above
From John 10:9-10: “I am the gate. Whoever enters by Me will be saved and will come in and go out and find pasture. The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have life and have it abundantly.”
