Life has no promises, nor satisfaction in fame;
No glory in riches, nor power to claim.
Men may forsake us and friends turn away;
Plans we have made might go the wrong way.
Things we desire and possessions thought to last,
come and go quickly, as time moves so fast.
There’s no guarantee in this life that we live,
and no lasting gifts that man has to give.
There’s only one hope when things go wrong;
To give us strength, to keep holding on.
There’s only on friend, who’s righteous and true,
though others may fail us, He always comes through.
With Christ, we have hope, for each new day,
and His promise of joy, if we trust and obey.
So as trials come, remember God's word...
He'll never leave or forsake us, His promise is good.
1988
