I Do Not Set Aside   

Sharon Rutherford          07-10-1993 

I do not set aside the grace of God
For if righteousness comes from the Law
Jesus Christ died in vain,
Christ died in vain.

*******************

Always You go before me.
The path is plan to see,
But I can’t keep up.
Won’t You wait for me?

Your holiness is something
My mind just can’t conceive.
I’m always falling down
But Your Word I still believe.

Sometimes it hurts, sometimes you’re sad.
Sometimes it’s sort of hard to be glad
There’s no need for you to fear
Just take My hand, ‘cause I am right here. 

************************************

There is so much about life
That I just don’t understand
So much joy, yet so much strife
What will it next demand?

Other people can see a soul
Being torn apart by the wind
The rain beating them down,
Storms taking their toll

Every time I turn around,
When I’m lost and when I’m found
There you are.
                It’s hard
Sometimes you don’t want to look over your shoulder,
Cause you don’t want to remember where you been.
