A Gospel of hope


Free


You always helped
The people you met.
When you lived on earth.

You healed their pain
And eased their fear.
And helped them live their lives.

You gave them hope,
You gave them strength
And you always showed them care.

And still today
You’re here to help and share your love
And to free us from all fear.

Help us


Jesus, you knew and loved your family.
You know us too.

Jesus, you were known by your family.
Help us to know you too.

Jesus, you loved and cared for your friends.
You love us too.

Jesus, you were loved by your friends.
Help us to love you too.

Jesus, you lived and died for everyone.
Help us to live for you too.

Real


You were real.
People saw you.
People touched you.
People spoke to you.
People listened to you.
People ate with you.

You are real.
Though we can’t see you,
Though we can’t touch you,
We can speak to you,
We can listen to you,
We can trust in you.
  

Jesus


Jesus, thank you
That you lived on earth.

Jesus, thank you
That you died for me.

Jesus, thank you
That you live today.

Jesus, thank you
That you love me now.

Jesus, thank you
That I can love you too.

Jesus, thank you
That I can put my trust in you.

Promises


God made promises.
We can read about them all.

God made promises.
They show his love,

God made promises.
They give us hope.

God made promises.
He gave us Jesus.

We believe


We believe in Jesus.
We believe he lived.
We believe he died.
We believe he rose again.
We believe he brings life.
We believe he brings love.
We believe he brings hope.

We believe.
