To the Family
God’s In Control
Don’t ever get disheartened
No matter what life brings.
Our God alone is in control
And watching over things.
He has a look-out on your life
From sunrise till sunset
And nothing ever happens
That will take Him by surprise
He knows each teardrop you will shed
He knows just how to dry it,
He only wants what’s best for you
Have faith, and don’t deny it.
Our God controls the Universe
Each second of its span,
And He controls the destiny
Of each child in His plan.
Our God will not abandon you
His love has no loophole,
His eye is always watching you
He’s in complete control.

I’m Free
Don’t grieve for me for I’m free.
I’m following the path God laid for me
I took his hand when I heard him call.
I turned my back and left it all.
I could not stay another day
To laugh, to live, to work, or play.
Task left undone must stay that way.
Perhaps my time seemed all too brief
Don’t lengthen it now with undone grief.
Lift up your heart and share with me.
God wanted me now; He has set me free
