To Peter. The Rock. HOPE FOR THE NATIONS 🌎

We choose not to YEILD
To "The spirit of fear"
HOPE and PEACE fill our hearts
As OUR HEAVENLY FATHER draws near

.....Your TRUE CHURCH consists
Of FULLY SURRENDERED souls
Who KNOW and LOVE you
UNION with you is their goal

Their MESSAGE, is SIMPLE
This A young child can understand
They TRUST you implicitly
With your LOVE these are fanned

.......In times of CRISIS
They remain QUIET and STILL
Within GOD'S GARDEN
They know their cup you will fill

.....Yes Jesus holds the KEYS
To the ornate GARDEN GATE
On the park bench outside
Devout souls SILENTLY WAIT

FULLY SURRENDERED daily
To your DIVINE ORDER and WILL
They WAIT in this QUIET PLACE
ASSURED their empty cup YOU WILL FILL

........Jesus unlocks THE GATE
And beckons them in
They walk beside him forgiven
FREED from all self centred sin

He walks beside them
Often holding their hand
Revealing THE BEAUTY of His Creation
The canyons, mountains, SO GRAND

....Often with Picture language
TRUTHS are taught as He leads
Beside STILL WATERS they stroll
At His table He meets their needs

.......THE GATE TO HIS GARDEN
Is BEAUTIFUL TO BEHOLD
JESUS holds THE KEY to GODS PRESENCE
In THE BIBLE this, we are told

......INTIMACY of RELATIONSHIP!
"Religious Jargon", this replaces.
SONGS OF PRAISE and WORSHIP
With His merciful love, us He embraces

In His Loving Presence
Hearts with JOY are filled
Through THE GATE into HIS PRESENCE
His Precious souls become stilled
