Faith gives us strength to live each day,
The passion for living, come what may,
The courage to face our past with pride,
To burst forth from the shadows and no longer hide.
Hope gives us the will to carry on,
A jolt to take us far beyond,
The farthest reaches of imagination,
To join the Resurrection Celebration.
A joy the defies all comprehension,
Of the powerful gift of our redemption,
Through the blood of the Great Sacrifice,
Who, for our sins, paid the ultimate price.
I thank God every second for His grace,
For I will be able to see His face,
To hold Him and received His love,
And the key to my eternal home above.
I eagerly await that day,
When my time comes and I'm called away,
When I will inherit my rightful place,
With faith, hope, joy, and grace.
