Abba-Advocate





You break the darkness with new dawn
Time flows ‘neath Your command
Lord, succor us to journey on
 And simply hold your hand

The Rock of our salvation knows
What vision cannot see
Lord, guide us on yet hold us close
…a child on Abba’s knee

Time is a sequence of ‘Befores’
Death simply quells its tides
And what a-waits beyond these shores
Ah, there our Hope abides

Oh, loving Abba-Advocate
A new day fills the sky
Lord, keep our eyes fixed on the Gate
That leads to by-and-by

 My little children, I am writing these things to you so that you may not sin. And if anyone sins, we have an Advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous; and He Himself is the propitiation for our sins; and not for ours only, but also for those of the whole world.…1 John 2: 1-2

We have friends overseas who have legitimate reasons for anxiety right now. They desire our prayers that they may keep the faith and trust in the Lord and not their own understanding!
Will you pray?
