With simple FAITH and LOVE
Can lead man’s straying footsteps
To HIGHER REALMS ABOVEI
HE WAS ONE OF US
He was born as little children are
And lived as children do,
So remember that the Saviour
Was once a child like you.
And remember that He lived on earth
In the midst of sinful men,
And the problems of the present
Existed even then;
He was ridiculed and laughed at
In the same heartbreaking way
That we who fight for justice
Are ridiculed today;
He was tempted….. He was hungry
....He was lonely.. He was sad
There’s no sorrowful experience
That the Saviour has not had;
And in the end He was betrayed
And even crucified.
For He was truly “ONE OF US”.
He lived on earth and died,
So do not heed the skeptics
Who are often heard to say;
“WHAT DOES GOD UP IN HEAVEN
KNOW OF THINGS WE FACE TODAY”
For, our Father up in heaven
Is very much aware
Of our failures and shortcomings
And the burdens that we bear;
So whenever you are troubled
Put your problems in God’s Hand
For He has faced all problems
AND HE WILL UNDERSTAND.
AMEN!!
Love this!!
I’ve had this on my fridge for years and had to take it it down and put in my bible for a keepsake.
Words long ago I still cherish today.
That’s beautiful.
