His Grace Now - Poem by Raymond A. Foss

In turning to him in our struggles
letting down our burdens
in releasing our cares
to the four winds

His grace now
meeting my worries
telling me to just believe
that he will provide

Nothing of today
needing to weigh me down
God will lift me up
ever, always

Our lives charted
our way already measured
our lives with meaning
paid for at the cross

We should go, liberated
freed from worry
released from our chains
to be the light to the world
