STEADFASTNESS

You, Jesus Christ, are true to your Word,
You’re so much greater than everything we’ve heard.
When life around us becomes hard and absurd,
We can run into You, where we are centered.

You remove the discouragement that has occurred,
And quiet our souls, so like a cat, we purr.
You send forth your peace, undeterred,
And lift us up higher, like a happy seabird.

You give us insight on things that look blurred,
And you calm our fear of being slandered,
And in our hearts, a new vision you stirred,
So you can plant in us, a fruitful vineyard.

You remove the bitterness that we have harbored,
And you heal the relationships that have been fractured.
You show us what to do when anger is triggered,
And you turn our wastelands into a beautiful orchard.
