BE OF GOOD CHEER
Trials and tribulations will surely come your way,
Jesus said just before He died, He also did say,
Unto us be of good cheer, in the very same verse,
Remember this, when things go from bad to worse.

Some days seem full of grief, sorrow and sheer misery,
Of all the pain and hurt unable to set ourselves free.
Think, be of good cheer, the Lord knows how you feel,
Trust in His love, and smile and He will sweetly heal.

We need trials and tribulations so strong we can grow.
The Lord allows them to happen because He loves us so.
If we endure well all the strife that may come our way,
We will be clothed in glory and be His one great day.

Be of good cheer when you are suffering or in great pain,
Be of good cheer as another set of trials come to you again.
Be of good cheer, when your heart is full of grief and sorrow,
For if we endure well through life there is a brighter tomorrow.
John Ch 16: 33.
