To God who we love
The power of God
beyond compare
causes me to wonder
at the price He had to bear
For us to be
at last free
from the sins passed down
and be able to see
The touch of His hand
no matter where we look
The gift of His life
as put in the Book
He created the day
and even the night
He created the stars
and the sun so bright
He gave us this life
we hold so dear
so when we return it to Him
we feel no fear
His love is so huge,
that there is naught to compare
He gives it for free
So with others we can share
The plan for our lives
is for us to go forth
to help others partake
of that which we have been given
The Peace of God
so perfect and true
must to others be given
and it's ours to do
So come now friend
pass Him to others
as He has said
and sleep ye well
when you go to bed
The eternal treasures
built here below
will serve in haven
to open the door
To peace everlasting
and joy beyond belief
as we stand on the shores
of the Crystal Sea
To honor our God
as He sits upon His Throne
With His children roundabout
never again to roam.
