Kept By the Power of God

 

 

As humans we often falter and fail,
Errors are made every day,
But as Christians we’re kept by God’s power…
On Heaven’s Holy Highway.
Though we stumble along our pilgrim path,
We shall never be cast down,
For no man can pluck us out of God’s hand…
Soon we’ll hear that trumpet sound…
Hallelujah! We’re Kept By the Power of God.

Our greatest desire is to please our Lord,
And walk closer than before,
Till we arrive in Heaven undefiled…
Perfected forevermore.
On earth we experience heaviness
In trials and tribulation,
But when we reach that Glorious City…
Oh, what a celebration!
Hallelujah! We’re Kept By the Power of God.

How we long to see Jesus, our Saviour,
And sing His praise face to face,
Not a shadow of worry or trouble
In that peaceful, Holy Place.
Yes, in this world, we stumble and fall short
As we walk the narrow way,
But, thanks be to God, His merciful arms
Gently lift us as we pray…
Hallelujah! We’re Kept By the Power of God.

 

“Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,
which according to his abundant mercy hath begotten us again unto
a lively hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead.
To an inheritance incorruptible and undefiled, and that fadeth not away,
reserved in heaven for you who are kept by the power of God through faith”
(1 Pet 1:3-5)
