I May
Bend
by
Barbara Philbrook
I may bend
during times of tempestuous strife,
but I'll not break because Jesus gave up His life.
Jesus died
that I may succeed through it all,
He gave me permission that on His name I can call.
I on my
own am brittle and weak,
but Jesus supplies all strength to those who seek.
I could
not withstand the future pestilent times,
but the strength I stand on is Jesus' not mine.
By the
rights of inheritance I am strengthened you see,
and Jesus is waiting to bestow the same on thee.
Satan
strives to break us one and all,
but Jesus is waiting to hear us each call.
None will
be forsaken, each will be heard,
ask anyone for whom the change has already occurred.
It is up
to you whether you will break or just bend,
but make your choice quickly, soon this world will meet
it's end.
I may bend
but I will never break,
because what Jesus offers I gladly take.
