BE OF GOOD CHEER
By: Irvin L. Rozier
BE OF GOOD CHEER
When the storms and trials of life come your way And you can barely keep the hellhounds at bay You have no help from your neighbors or friends Look to Jesus for in your troubles help he sends
Paul almost perished in that great storm on the sea When the Lord said to him be of good cheer it is me Paul trusted and had faith in the Lord and his plan None on the wrecked ship were lost, not even a man
Satan tries to destroy and hinder God's work Around God's children he does lurk But prayer to the Lord has much power Causes the enemy to withdraw and to cower
So I say unto you be of good cheer Trust in the Lord because he is ever near He will give you peace and wonderful grace And strength and endurance to run the race
Hold on to Jesus' loving powerful hand He will lead you on to the promised land When the enemy comes in like a flood Remember you are covered by his blood
