Oh, If I Could Fly Away ~
Oh, if I could fly away,
I’d soar into my Savior’s arms
there I would find my quiet rest
and be safe from all that harms.
I would take off and reside,
under the shadow of His wings
I’d be free from all the strife
living in this world often brings.
Oh, if I could fly away,
like an eagle I’d mount and rise
and climb to where His peace
would calm my fearful cries.
I would go right up to Him,
lay my burdens at His feet
and with Jesus I would find
my everlasting retreat.
Oh, if I could fly away,
if I had wings like a dove
I’d soar right up to heaven
and rest in His eternal love.
I would climb so ever high,
till I found His stillness
I would dive into His calm
and sop up His quietness.
Oh, if I could fly away,
I’d take you along with me . . .
and together we’d find rest
throughout all of eternity!

dove! for then would I fly away, and be
at rest.”

A Future Of Hope ~
A future filled with hope,
is a future worth knowing
for out of it are rivers
of living water flowing.
It’s a future of rest,
joy and elation
found in the well of
eternal salvation.
A future filled with hope,
is a future God planed
for it has been formed
by His very own hand.
It’s a future of peace,
of what is to come
when Jesus returns
to set up His kingdom.
A future filled with hope,
is worth our pursuing
for it’s a future with God
that is all consuming!

that I think toward you,
