With ailment though of grave concern <br />She walks God’s chosen way <br />So young and yet she’s come to learn <br />That death could call each day <br /> <br />She walks the walk but not alone <br />She speaks of life so sweet <br />Seeking advice from Heaven’s throne <br />Sitting at Jesus’ feet <br /> <br />Though Satan’s out to cheat and kill <br />Though life seems not too fair <br />She knows she’s in her Saviour’s will <br />She knows she’s in His care <br /> <br />She knows The Shepherd’s guiding voice <br />She’s learned the art to fight <br />She’s made God’s Son her life long choice <br />And knows His way is right <br /> <br />With daily song of God’s true love <br />With joyful foot astride <br />With searching eye now trained above <br />She walks as Jesus’ bride <br /> <br />Through Jesus’ blood now born again <br />She’s fled the devil’s jaws <br />With head held high through gloom and pain <br />She aims for Heaven’s Doors <br /> <br />With love and warmth in constant flow <br />Faithful her sacred vow <br />Radiating her Saviour’s glow <br />Hand firm upon His Plough <br /> <br />Whatever now this life may bring <br />What future God has planned <br />Eternity will see her sing <br />Within The Promised Land...<br /><br />Michael P.
