Hope Poem by David Olughu

HOPE
In order for life not to cheat us
We must make our life 100% Jesus
He is the way, the truth and the life
With that in mind, just endure the current strife
Life might be as cold as ice
Just know there is a place called paradise
He is our HOPE

Past failures
Only make way for God's cures
Never base on the past
Because it is not among God's success cast
Your background
Only determines how many degrees God needs to turn your situation around
He is our HOPE

Current situations you see with your eyes
Are just testimonies in disguise
For God has given you the assurance
That you have insurance
So no matter how many times you get knocked down
Keep your faith and you'll get a heavenly crown
He is our HOPE

The future can be blurry
God says "My son, don't worry"
Your future is bright
For His plans for you will surely bring delight
If you must have missed your way
Worry not for He will guide you and He won't lead you astray
He is our HOPE

When you look back at your life and all you see is tragedy
Remember the blood He shed for you on the cross of Calvary
He said "The sun shall neither smite you by day nor the moon by night"
Then why do you still live in fright
At the sight of tribulations, there's no need to hide
Because in Him, you are like a tree planted by the river side
He is our HOPE

When you think you can't
Remember that in you is the power to uproot and to plant
He is your shield and defender
Your only true father
You are a star, hence you must shine
Because He that created you is divine
He is our HOPE

Your day may be filled with trouble
Never mind, He that keepeth you will never fumble
He is your creator
Your mentor
He is the shepherd
You are the sheep in His herd
He is our HOPE

He has given you the Holy Spirit
That you will be equipped with the heavenly first aid kit
For that cause, you have dominion
Over every demon
For at the mention of His name
Principalities and powers are engulfed and consumed in flame
He is our HOPE

He is preparing for you a place
A place filled with grace
Your Promised Land
Built with His own hand
A city made of gold
Thus you must be bold
He is our HOPE

He is the same yesterday, today and forever
He is not a deceiver
You are the clay and He is the potter
He moulded you, with a distinct character
He finished you with gifts and talents
Avoiding mistakes that can leave dents
He is our HOPE

So when you think it is over
Lean back and witness the handwork of Jehovah
For in Him, nothing is impossible
Every goal is achievable
So when next you feel depressed
Get ready to be impressed
He is our HOPE
