His Promise
|
One day along time ago
Before the world began,
A plan was given to each of us
It was placed in our willing hands.
There were two parts to this plan
One was for all the world,
The other plan was just for us
About our life and what was in store.
This first plan included a Savior
Jesus Christ, our brother,
He will come to earth and suffer greatly
A sacrifice like no other.
All of us shouted for joy
But there was one who was especially excited,
She held the plan close to her heart
For it was her plan that made her delighted.
As she read over the things God had planned for her
Everyone had gathered around,
To see the joy that filled her eyes
When they saw it all they did was frown.
One asked, “why does this make you so happy?
When it seems your life will be hard,
Why do your eyes light up so bright
When you see how your life will start?
As she looked at them with eyes of love
She wondered why they didn’t understand,
That though her life would have suffering and trials
It was them that would take her hand.
She wasn’t concerned about the bad that would happen
Or the suffering she would entail,
For she knew they would be there
To help her along life’s dreary trail.
After she got her thoughts together
She said, “do you not understand?
The reason I’m happy today
Is not just because of this glorious plan.
Its that Father promised to send angels
Through my good and bad,
He promised they would guide me
that’s one reason I am glad.
These angels are so close to me
Some are hidden some are seen,
They are those who will keep me on track
And keep me spiritually clean.
As they heard her speak
Their eyes lit up so bright,
For they wondered who these angels where
Who would keep her in their sights.
She turned to look at them and said
“my friends it is you,
You will be my guiding light
All my life through”.
That is why I’m happy today
For I know you will be there,
To laugh with me and cry with me
Yes, lots of things we’ll share.
So then she went to Father and said
“Thank you dear Father, I’m ready to go,
Wherever you send me, I’m willing to be
For I know you’ll be there, with your angels in tow.
I know it will be okay
For you have given me something grand,
Angels to guide and comfort me
To be there to take my hand.
I’m grateful for this chance you gave me
Though easy it wont be,
I know that it must happen
To one day return home with thee.
So as she came to earth
One angel was waiting right there,
She held her tightly in her arms
Then she knew she was in God’s care.
So as her life went on
And as the plan did say,
She went through lots of suffering
And at times she even did sway.
But as promised God sent her help
To lift up along the way,
And though she did not recognize them
They were with her everyday.
Then one day, another angel appeared
One that was close to her heart,
And held her tightly as her first angel did
And promised they’d never part.
So even though trials may come
And even do wrong some days,
God will always send angels as he promised
To help you along your way.
