Faith Invites Us on a Journey

by Greg Asimakoupoulos

Posted: March 12, 2022

New Lenten lyrics to an old familiar hymn tune…

Faith invites us on a journey
that began with God’s own Son.
Jesus modeled joy and suffering
on the way to make us one.
There’s a road that we must follow
if we hope to reach our goal.
Every day we have the chance to
walk with Him who guards our soul.

Faith invites us on a journey
that expresses God’s own heart.
Grace and beauty frame the vistas
as each day we make our start.
There is nothing that can hinder
what God longs for us to see.
Every day the Lord provides us
glimpses of eternity.

Faith invites us on a journey
that concludes in God’s own time.
We are called to simply trust Him
as we heed direction signs.
There’s no reason to be anxious.
God will guide us as we go.
Every day we’re making headway
though our progress may be slow.

tune: Beach Spring (used by such hymns as "Come Ye Sinners," "See His Kingdom Come in Power," and "The Heart of Christ")
