The truth of this song is manifested in our lives as God carries us through the storm of Kristen’s physical death. How precious is the gift of faith we have been given! The gift is not to be hidden. It is our obligation to share!
“Our grief is swallowed up in the light of His glory and grace!”
We grieve through eyes that have seen God’s glory through the beautiful and intimate reality of His grace in the trials and triumphs of our lives.
O soul, are you weary and troubled?
No light in the darkness you see?
There’s light for a look at the Savior,
And life more abundant and free.
Turn your eyes upon Jesus,
Look full in His wonderful face,
And the things of earth will grow strangely dim,
In the light of His glory and grace.
Through death into life everlasting
He passed, and we follow Him there;
O’er us sin no more hath dominion
For more than conqu’rors we are!
His Word shall not fail you, He promised;
Believe Him and all will be well;
Then go to a world that is dying,
His perfect salvation to tell!
