The true riches of life are faith and trust,
To live with Christ Jesus, they are a must,
Without these riches that faith and trust seal,
For us the Risen Lord will not be real,
True, we will love Him and speak of His Name,
As who left heaven and to this world came,
Redeemer, Saviour, of Adam’s lost race,
Willingly taking the sinner’s vile place,
Yes, God Incarnate suffered, bled and died,
That His Blood on sinners would be applied,
To purchase, to pardon, to cleanse from sin,
A house for the Spirit to dwell therein,
But without faith and trust, He can’t abide,
In any human life that’s steeped in pride,
Where the carnal mind still holds firm and strong,
As the temporal guides dead feet along,
Dead to the Christ whose precious Blood was shed,
Cold to life that is Holy Spirit led,
Void of the fatness of God’s promises,
Powerless in all of His services;
Faith and trust in Christ is the only way,
To know our Lord’s riches day after day.
Amen!
