Kept By His Love (March 20. 2012)
By Allan Thomasson

Whether in grief, pain or trouble,
In this world of hate and fear,
To my Lord, I turn; He’s faithful
For my God is always near.

He will never leave, forsake me;
This, the promise He has made.
All my life is just to trust Him,
Straight, my path which He has laid.

I have had much pain and sorrow;
He has watched from up above.
All I need is waiting for me;
For I am ‘Kept By His Love’.

When my life on earth is over,
And I roam eternity,
God, my Lord, will be there with me,
And with Him, I’ll always be.

In this life, there are such heartaches.
Friends and loved one cannot see
Into depths no man can fathom,
Of my heart inside of me;

All the times when I am lonely.
But my Lord can always see
Things my heart is contemplating,
I know He always loves me.

When at last I see that glory,
He’s prepared for me above;
I’ll still know He’ll keep me safely,
For I am 'Kept By His Love'.
