Be content to live within the hour

“The Lord is the strength of my life.”

PSALM 27:1

A gate that opens amidst the shadows

Has a way of proving to you

That holding on that little bit longer

Revealed a much different view.

Time moves so fast, life asks so much,

Be content to live within the hour,

To dwell too much on future things

Deletes and robs you of daily power.

Friends and neighbours share the journey

And all too soon hours slip away,

So may we cultivate the power to see

There’s much depends on what we say.

Keep bright the light of hope and encouragement,
Victory is ours over weakness and strife,

While we believe and stand on the written word,

“The Lord is the strength of my life.”
