We Are Not Left Alone
This was the closing prayer poem from my sermon I Will Not Leave You as Orphans. August 21, 2022. First Chinese Baptist Church, Walnut, California.
We Are Not Left Alone
Father, Son, and Spirit –
All glory be to God!
Who calls us as his children,
Who bought us by his blood.
You promised us a helper
As Christ’s commands we keep.
In loving God and others we
Are sealed with joy and peace.
Beloved and adopted,
We are not left alone.
Your presence and your power
Are gifts to guide us home.
Holy Spirit help us to
Remember and to see:
That Jesus is the Son in whom
We hope and we believe.
