Hope From The Cross

Hello everyone. It's Alison once more. I want to share something very dear to my heart that my father wrote for me. I hope you find refuge in it as I have many times. Have a great day!!


Hope From The Cross
His Sovereign Arms of Grace


When Christ was hung upon the ugly cross
It appeared to His disciples that all was loss

But in God’s sovereign plan to be
Life for man, eternally

When all seems dark and out of control
The winds are howling and the sea billows roll

It is the crucified one who rebukes the wind
And the calming of the waves the Lamb doth send

May we carry our cross to the appointed place
Never ever doubting His sovereign arms of grace

In the death of our will He sets us free
The arisen Jesus of the cross gives victory
