Pastor Eric's Words of Redemption

Bible verse:

Proverbs 8:32 NIV 

Now then, my children, listen to me; blessed are those who keep my ways.

My take for today:

Trust and obey.

Pray:

Father, I thank you for waking me up with a song, trust and obey: 

• [Refrain] Trust and obey, for there's no other way to be happy in Jesus, but to trust and obey.

• [1] When we walk with the Lord, In the light of His Word, What a glory He sheds on our way; While we do His good will, He abides with us still, And with all who will trust and obey.

• [2] Not a shadow can rise, Not a cloud in the skies, But His smile quickly drives it away; Not a doubt or a fear, Not a sigh or a tear, Can abide while we trust and obey.

• [3] Not a burden we bear, Not a sorrow we share, But our toil He doth richly repay; Not a grief or a loss, Not a frown or a cross, But is blest if we trust and obey.

• [4] But we never can prove, The delights of His love, Until all on the altar we lay; For the favor He shows, And the joy He bestows, Are for them who will trust and obey.

• [5] Then in fellowship sweet, We will sit at His feet, Or we'll walk by His side in the way; What He says we will do; Where He sends. we will go, Never fear, only trust and obey.

Now, Lord, help me by the Holy Spirit to trust and obey; in Christ Jesus, Amen.

Song: Trust and Obey
