Grace Lingers...

God looked upon

Human race

He pitied us

And offered grace

Alpha and

Omega gave

His Son, Jesus

Mankind to save

Oh, pray for those

Not yet secure

Within the Rock

That will endure

For Grace lingers

Upon earth's shore

Where time’s swift river

Is a door

...but the grace

That saves us here

In death’s dark wave

Will disappear

Then pray for those

Not yet secure

Within the Rock

That will endure

There is none holy as the Lord: for there is none beside Thee: neither is there any rock like our God.

Talk no more so exceeding proudly: let not arrogancy come out of your mouth: for the Lord is a God of knowledge, and by Him our actions are weighed. The bows of mighty men are broken, and they  that stumbled are girded with strength. 1 Sam. 2: 2-4
