He Gave Me A Mission
Click on button to play music.
I realize its late in life. But, my Lord gave me a mission to do;
To write and send, to the lonely and the hurt, His word, so true.
Maybe, the blind, in life, can leave the strife and come to Him there;
As they kneel down, at the Cross, in earnest and sincere Prayer.
He will meet you, there; so happy to have you with Heaven's band.
You will rise up rejoicing, once you meet Him and understand.
He's the Living Savior, born of a virgin, and hung on a cross for me.
And, He gave me a mission to carry out, before I go there to see ...
All the wonder of glory, that I know is there; to have and to hold,
When we accept this Savior with love that's pure and, Oh, so bold.
He said, "Go and tell the others what befell you this wondrous today,
How you have been saved by grace and will never, for a sin, have to pay."
I know Heaven is a wonder, with such an awesome ruling King
Who loves us and wants us only to worship Him, and gladness He will bring ...
Into the hearts of so many; each one who accepts Gods' only Son.
For, He's eternal life, throughout the ages, and God's Son is the one.
He bids me to take a mission with Him at my side, going on before
And in all Holiness, writing and telling His story, more and more ...
How He gave up His life (how He suffered, died, and, then, arose again),
To bring salvation to every child living, every woman and man.
He's the reason we celebrate Easter. It was when He came out of the tomb,
Rising into Heaven with His Father, born of a little virgin's womb
Through the Holy Spirit, who came upon her to plant the wondrous seed;
Who would live and rule Heaven and earth forever. How wondrous, indeed!
