Because You Are On Our Side Poem by KINGJ KINGJ

1
With all our hearts and souls, we praise You, our LORD God,
For truly everlasting is your love,
so holy and so good are all your words and ways,
for they bring safety to our lives each day.

refrain

Because, Lord God Almighty, You are on our side,
Again, You saved us and we made it through.
O thank You, Father dear! O thank you, Father dear,
For we, Your chosen, are still loved by you.

2

Throughout the year gone by, much sorrow we have left
And many are hardships that have come;
Because of your compassion and your kindness, Lord,
In our election, we continue on.

3

We have received your blessings daily in our lives,
Enough for all our needs and even more;
To every family, to each and every home,
Beyond all measure, graces you out pour.

refrain

Because, Lord God Almighty, You are on our side,
Again, You saved us and we made it through.
Othank You, Father dear! O thank you, Father dear,
For we, Your chosen, are still loved by you.

4

You gave us the solution that we sought in prayer
To every problem in this troubled life,
And you did not allow us to be overcome
by persecution, suffering, and strife.

5

In spite of the unfailing goodness you have shown,
Your chosen ones have sinned and made mistakes;
When we returned to you, LORD, You forgave our sins
And, in your patience, guided us to change.

refrain

Because, Lord God Almighty, You are on our side,
Again, You saved us and we made it through.
Othank You, Father dear! O thank you, Father dear,
For we, Your chosen, are still loved by you.

6

Unyielding and undaunted, we will stand our ground,
And we will fight with courage for our faith:
The fervor that we have in serving You, Lord God,
Will never wane and never fade away.

7

To you, Almighty Father, fully we entrust
Our life here in this world for all our days,
in your Church, we will always serve and worship you
With unconditional obedience.

refrain

Because, Lord God Almighty, You are on our side,
Again, You saved us and we made it through.
Othank You, Father dear! O thank you, Father dear,
For we, Your chosen, are still loved by you.

Coda

Please do not leave us alone;
Take care of us evermore;
We pray may we behold the blest one hundredth year
Of your beloved fold, your Church in these last days;
and most of all, we beg you, LORD,
That soon we may all reach our home with you.

Amen
