“When the devil’s arm seems strong,
brother keep on keeping on”
— Colony House, Keep On Keeping On
Through doubt and wonder,
Silence with no return.
Through joy and surety,
Response and love to burn.
For times of praise
When all seems good.
For times of pleading
Hoping He would.
For knowledge and guidance
When you can’t find the way.
To sing and rejoice
In the most beautiful day.
To acknowledge a presence
You know is there
When they tell you it’s not
Or they just don’t care.
To respond to the spirit
Pushing you through.
To express to Christ
Your gratitude.
That He was sent
You understand.
The son of God
The son of man.
To pay for once
To pay for all
The darkness that
We brought to call.
And call He does,
All time, all ways.
Beckoning us
To learn to praise.
For this is the right mind
Of you and me.
Joined with the Trinity
In conversation unceasing
Praise, hope, love releasing.
An unending march toward grace,
all eyes upon His face.
Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.
— 1 Thessalonians 5:16–18
