Job was a man of health, wealth and wisdom He feared the Lord and gave Him his praise Then Satan set out to prove that this victim Would curse at the Lord and give up his faith God said to Satan do what you will But touch not the man for he is mine still So Satan destroyed all that was so dear and so close Poor Job lost his children, his home and his flocks But Job stayed steadfast to the Lord and said no curse He thanked and praised the Lord for no reason at all Again Satan came to the Lord and was allowed to cause harm Onto the body of Job the righteous, honest and strong Job's wife was there she saw all his pain She said why do you love him just curse him and die Job would not do it he followed his faith He prayed and he praised The Almighty God on high Four friends were there and they each tried to explain The reason that God would put Job through such pain But Job held strong as he feared and praised God He knew both trouble and goodness were sent from above Job was rewarded after he endured all the pain God gave him wealth and greatness more than double what was So remember our God in your trials and tribulations And know that He cares because he sent us salvation We are better off then Job was so long ago We have Jesus to save us I want you to know When Satan comes calling I know in my heart Through prayer and praise I'll have a new start Through Jesus we know we will someday see More than ever imagined more than ever believed The glorious place that the Lord holds for us Is waiting for you if you believe, love and trust Marty 1/14/1 |
