Unconditional, none greater

Father’s steadfast and faithful love

He witnesses each human stain

Yet, His grace forgives from above

 

Eternity’s river of hope

Father’s truth expressed through His love

Righteousness descends from above

 

Enemy’s darkness now shattered

Father’s peace illuminates love

Patience always slow to anger

Angelic praises from above

 

Judgment left to His caring hands

Father’s vision expresses love

Invites man’s actions of kindness

Sunrise always leads from above

 

Truth sown from greatest commandment

Father looks inward at man’s love

Shared with every generation

Joy destined to praise from above

God’s invitation

Walking before Me

Fleeing sin’s darkness

Peace shall cover thee

 

Confidence cries out

Embracing God’s way

Leaving wilderness

Hope transcends this day

 

God’s glory revealed

Kneeling before Me

Comforting presence

Tomorrow walks free

 

Each valley raised up

Revealing God’s grace

Rebuilding faith’s trust

Joy beams from His face

 

God’s will standing tall

Sharing Word with Me

Believing His truth

Mercy granted thee

Believing in Jesus

Faith built upon His love

Following God’s law

Hope sown from above

 

Walking in light with Christ

Faith’s strength breathes, as God planned

Conquering darkness

Peace fills each heartland

 

Beholding Savior’s grace

Faith’s cornerstone reborn

Seeing empty tomb

Redemption airborne

 

Hearing Messiah’s voice

Faith embraces His Word

Fearing no longer

Mountaintop unblurred

 

Weeping replaced with joy

Faith’s enriched Living Bread

Coming home at last

Trust forever fed
