Sacred Trust
You never tried to win more secular appeal,
And water down your message with a slightly different feel.
You never tried to be politically correct,
Or skirt around the issues attempting to connect.
You spoke the truth in love so faithfully,
You expect no less from me.
It's a sacred trust,that You gave to us,
To take your word into all the world.
It's a sacred trust, that You gave to us,
the message of salvation and Your love.
You never shied away from critical debate,
Or beat around the bushes when discussing human fate.
You were never ashamed to tell them who your Father was,
Never ran from persecution like human nature does.
You prayed for all believers on your knees,
then you handed us the keys.
It's a sacred trust,that You gave to us,
To take your word into all the world.
It's a sacred trust, that You gave to us,
the message of salvation and Your love.
You're trusting us to be bold; The story has to be told.
To every nation and tongue, young and old.
I'm gonna shout from the hill,
How could I ever be still?
I'm gonna let the chips fall where they will.
You spoke the truth in love so faithfully,
You expect no less from me.
It's a sacred trust,that You gave to us,
To take your word into all the world.
It's a sacred trust, that You gave to us,
the message of salvation and Your love.
This song is a great inspiration to me. So many of us claim to want to be followers of Jesus by "showing" His love, but to be imitators of Jesus is also to be bold, stand, speak the truth, and Resist evil...
Blessings and love to all!
