Eternal and Everlasting
by Barbara Philbrook

Always was and will forever be,
that's what eternal and everlasting means you see.

Our God was how we all began.
He is the designer and creator of every man.

He made the world in which we live,
and 'twas He a second chance to us did give.

He devised and executed the salvation plan,
to pay for the sins of every man.

'Tis He who sent His precious Son to Earth,
to offer salvation to people of no worth.

'Tis He who answers our each and every prayer,
and reaches down to get us from the depth of despair.

Prayers may not be answered as we requested,
but that His knowledge is superior need not be tested.

We know He works all things for our good,
just as any loving caring Father would.

One day we'll all be going home for eternity,
to be with the Father, Son and Holy Spirit all three.

Eternal and everlasting terms beyond our conception,
but when we go Home we'll have a new perception.
