Hope Against Hope, Even When You Have No Hope

Hope against hope,
even when you have
no hope,

Find that spark
of light
within the dark.


Trust in the Lord.
Have faith
He'll see you through,

And, believe that
He will finish
what He starts.

Constance V. Walden


"Against all hope, Abraham, in hope believed..."
Romans 4:18

If Jesus Takes Away My Sins...

If Jesus
takes away my sins,
shall I then
take them back again?

Shall I embrace
the very cause
my Lord and Savior
suffered loss?

And of those sufferings
He went through,
the scourge, the nails,
the ridicule...

Shall I look on
that dark display,
then without shame,
just walk away?

If Jesus
takes away my sins,
shall I then take
them back again?

Oh, may it never
thus be so!
My sins, for Christ's sake,
I'll let go!

Time Without End

How long
will Sweet Jesus,
my Savior, love me?

Through time
without end,
and through eternity.


Always and forever,
non-stop,
endlessly;

And, through
everlasting,
and infinity.

"Your love, O LORD, reaches to
the heavens." Psalm 36:5

Come To Jesus Now

The Lord looked down from Heaven
at men upon the earth
and was sorry when He saw
their wicked deeds

For their violence and corruption
did rise up before His eyes,
for the devil had control
of all their seed;

So, the Lord made it to rain,
forty days and forty nights
until the mountain tops were covered,
and all had died,

Except for Noah and his family,
and many different animals,
for they were in the ark,
all safe inside.

When the waters had receded
and the ark was found on land,
the Lord then made a promise
to the men

That He would never send the waters
to destroy that way again
for to wash away all life
because of sin;

But, the devil's in this world
and most men do follow him
for their deeds do grow more wicked
every day.

The same violence and corruption
that God hated in the past
has now increased and grown worse
in every way;

But, the time will shortly come
when the Lord will wait no longer,
when man's deeds and all his violence
can't get worse,

Then, our God will send a fire
on that dark and terrible day
that will consume with fervent heat
and melt the earth;

But, the children of the Lord,
those who put their faith in Christ,
these will live as Noah lived
and did survive,

For the ark today is Jesus
Who will save us from the fire...
Come to Jesus now
where you'll be safe inside.

Constance V. Walden

Bountiful Treasures of Jesus

Of the bountiful treasures
of Jesus,
no earthly wealth can
compare;

For, the pearl of great price
is eternal life
in the Heavenly portals
prepared.

A crown
and great riches await me,
spiritual jewels
set for life

In the presence
of the Wonderful Father,
and the arms
of my Savior and Christ.

Constance V. Walden

When It Is Time

When it is time,
when it is time
for me to leave
this world behind

My inner being,
guided by Christ
will pass through darkness
into light.

Out of this world,
He will call me,
His sweet voice
gently beckoning.

My hand in His,
His hand in mine
when Jesus says
that it is time.

Constance V. Walden


“Even though I walk through the valley
of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil,
for You are with me.” Psalm 23:4

Rock, Rope, and Anchor

This Rock that I now cling to
is firmly set in place;

Jesus Christ sits on the throne.
In Him is all my faith.

This Rope that I hold tight to
resists the blowing winds;

Jesus Christ, the same always.
I put my faith in Him.

This Anchor is established
that I should never stray;

Jesus Christ speaks only truth,
He is the only Way.

The Rock, the Rope, the Anchor,
all strong and made to hold.

Jesus Christ, the strength and might
of every living soul.
