OUR GOD ALWAYS REMEMBERS US
OUR GOD ALWAYS REMEMBERS US
Like a good mother
Or a good father-
God always REMEMBERS his children
Our God-our Father
Always REMEMBERS us
Forever and ever
“Can a mother
Forget her infant
Be without tenderness
For the child of her womb?
Even should she forget
I will NEVER FORGET YOU. Isaiah 49:15
Like a mother
PROTECTS her child
That is
How our Father PROTECTS us
“You are my hiding place
You will
Protect me from trouble
And surround me
With songs of deliverance” Psalm 32:7
“I will remain
In the world no longer
But they are
STILL in the world
And I am
Coming to you
Holy Father PROTECT them
By the power
Of your name
The NAME you gave
So that they may be one
AS WE ARE ONE” John 17:11
OUR Holy Father
Protects us and REMEMBERS us
Forever and ever
Just like a father or mother
Protects and remembers his child
And God our Father
DELIGHTS in our accomplishments
And UNCONDITIONALLY forgives
Our missteps and misdeeds
Just like a father or a mother
ALWAYS does
Isaiah KNOWS
That there are mothers and fathers
Who sometimes forget their children
For ALL kinds of reasons-
NOT necessarily their fault
But Isaiah wants us to KNOW
That even the STONGEST
Of human bonds-
Sometimes fail us
But our God-NEVER DOES
Our God is always faithful
To his promise
Our God always REMEMBERS us
“I will maintain
My love
To him forever
My covenant with him
WILL NEVER FAIL” Psalm 89:28
“For no word from God
WILL EVER FAIL” Luke 1:37
Thank God for that
Thank God-the Lord
IS always TRUE
To his word
Our Lord-Our God
Always remembers us
Our God
Is more faithful than the tenderest-
Mother and father
He will-never forget us
His word-IS GOOD forever
“REMEMBER Lord
Your great MERCY and love
For they
Are from of old” Psalm 25:6
“I thank my God
EVERY time I remember you
I always PRAY WITH JOY
Because of your partnership
In the gospel
From the first day
Until now
Being confident of this
That he who began
A good work in you
WILL carry it on to completion
Until the day of Christ Jesus” Philippians 1:3-6
That is the way
OUR Saint Paul felt
And that is the way
Our Lord-Jesus Christ-feels
He ALWAYS protects us
He always love us
He CHERISHES US
And he will never forget us
He will never let us down
Our God-
WILL ALWAYS REMEMBER US
Until the day-
That we come into HIS GLORY with him
