“I will see you again, and your heart shall rejoice, and your joy no man taketh from you… These things I have spoken unto you, that in Me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world” (John 6:22,33).
There
is a cause for changeless cheer
That
Jesus Christ our Savior gives,
Removing
every cause for fear
Because
forevermore He lives.
He
gives us reason to rejoice
With
joy that no one takes away.
We
are His sheep who hear His voice,
Delighting
in what He will say.
His
voice from Scripture we have heard
Assuring
us He’ll come again.
Our
joy unspeakable is stirred
To
know we shall behold Him then!
In
Christ alone we have our peace,
Though
all around is tribulation.
His
tender mercies never cease
In
every changing situation.
Our
Lord has overcome the world;
His
triumph is our confidence!
Our
sins into the depths were hurled
By
what He did in our defense!
We
know in every circumstance
The
changeless hope that cheers our soul
Is
anchored, not in changing chance,
But
rather in our Lord’s control.
Lord,
thank You for Your gracious favor
With
changeless cheer that You extend
Because
You fought to be our Savior
And
were triumphant in the end!
