Content In The Lord

I want to be content down here, while we live upon this earth, Living each day in Godly fear, with a focus on eternal worth, A sojourner on a temporal sphere, in the power of New Birth, Making it to others very clear; Heaven’s home, not this earth. Within my heart I take a stance, as God’s Truth I do embrace, Since He knows all in advance, content I can be in any place, Content through any circumstance, whatever it is I must face, For in God, there is no chance, as He supplies all with Grace. Life on this present terrestrial ball, isn’t the final place for me, Nor will it be for every other soul, as all shall move to eternity, And I’m content through it all, having my faith through Calvary, As God saved me from the fall, and gave me new eyes to see. I can be content now every day, while I live out this earthly life, Walking down life’s narrow way, lead by my Lord Jesus Christ, Hindered not by what men say, as they fill the world with strife, I will listen to The Lord and obey, while living a life of sacrifice. I can live my life assured, that I am always in my Savior’s sight, As all the rivers of life I can ford, guided by The Savior’s Light, Contented to live for my Lord, even when it gets dark as night, As His Peace on me is poured, with my future Eternally Bright.
