The Flame of Hope
by Barbara Philbrook

The flame of hope may be flickering but it is not yet out.
Do not let Satan assail you with seeds of doubt.

As long as you've got the slightest bit of breath,
you do not have to give in to that old enemy death.

As long as there is life there is a chance to choose.
Do not allow the evil one to make you think you loose.

You can be the one that shouts in victory,
by accepting the salvation offered to you for free.

Just call on the Father tell Him you accept and believe.
Instantly the gift of eternal life you receive.

The flame of hope will be extinguished to flicker no more,
so invite Jesus in by opening your heart's door.

No one else can make the decision for you or me.
The choice is our very own responsibility.

The flame of hope is still glowing bright,
guiding our way to a life filled with God's eternal light.

Don't be left to wander in darkness and gloom.
Invite Jesus in and start enjoying the light just that soon!
