Fight the Good Fight



In His book of life is written your name.
Yesterday’s sins He shall erase.

To glorify and serve Him we came
 So, celebrate His gift of grace.

We reject worldly wealth or fame,
Fight to finish the good race.

We eliminate the ‘blame and shame’ game,
 Behold Jesus in each face.

Joy, peace, harmony God shall impart
If we offer time, resources.

Our God knows a believer’s heart
 So, stay attuned to universal forces.
