Dec. 4

Colossians. 1-2

To know who Christ is.

That all power is his.

Is where our power derives.

From faith in our lives.

For he is over everyone

In the heavenly kingdom.

Supreme in all things.

And yet he now brings.

By his dying on the cross.

Payment for my loss.

So l can be near to him.

Who my only hope is in.

Not in what l do.

He alone does renew.

The spirit within me.

From sin sets me free.

That l might be a sign.

To all those friends of mine.

Of Christs power to transform.

When hope is forlorn.

No longer can they condemn.

The frailties of men.

John. 17:1-12

It may seem totally odd.

That the way we really know God

Is to know Christ as our Lord.

This cannot be ignored.

That he in humility did die.

Is the only reason why.

we have hope in this life.

Freedom from sin and strife.

Hope for all except those.

Who deliberately oppose.

Ps. 147:12-20

For all power is in him.

Who l have my faith in.

Nothing is to hard.

He holds the trump card.

To overcome all.

The large and the small

In this world of mine.

So l know l will be fine.

He is to be adored.

Give praises to the Lord.

Prov. 29:6-10

What does motivate.

Ensures your fate.
