A Future And A Hope

 

I stand within the bounds of earth,
My feet on shifting sands,
And any hopes I have in life
Are resting in Your hands.
 
I can’t control what life may bring.
It comes in, wave on wave,
But I will hold on to the faith
That those You’ve called, You’ll save.
 
For You have promised us new life,
Our soul’s You will restore
When we have crossed from this life’s storms
To rest on heaven’s shore.
 
There is no greater peace than that,
As the waves thunder in,
To know You have a place reserved
For me without my sin.
 
Jeremiah 29:11
For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope.
