Hope, Rope and Jesus
Dear friends, no matter what problems or trials
that don't seem to go away, we still have hope.
For there is always Jesus who helps us
keep our grip and hold on to the end of the rope.

Our Lord and Savior never gave in to the terrible treatment
he received - He even was whipped so badly.
Not once did He utter a word in His defense
or protest unlike you and me.

He even forgave those who were
responible for His death on the cross.
So never give up! For those who have Jesus
will suffer no loss.

We will be received by Jesus and the angels
who are waiting to greet me and you.
Dear friends, these earthly lives last for just a little while
hold on for Jesus' words are true.
