1 Thessalonians 4:15-18
For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep. For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air and so shall we ever be with the Lord. Wherefore comfort one another with these words.
2 Timothy 4:7-8
For I am already being poured out as a drink offering, and the time of my departure is at hand. I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. Finally, there is laid up for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will give to me on that Day, and not to me only but also to all who have loved His appearing .
Thank you, Valerie. I'm glad you loved Dottie's above song.
Now, here are the lyrics, so you can sing right along with Dottie...
"Sheltered In The Arms Of God"
(Verse 1)
I feel the touch of hands, so kind and tender,
They're leading me, in paths, that I must trod.
I'll have, no fear, for Jesus walks, beside me
For, I'm sheltered, in, the arms of God.
(Chorus)....
So, let, the storms rage high, the dark clouds rise,
They don't worry me, for I'm sheltered, safe, within the arms of God.
He walks with me, and not, of earth, shall harm me,
For, I'm sheltered, in, the arms of God.
(Verse 2)
Soon, I shall hear, the call, from heaven's portal,
Come home, my child, this is the last mile, you must trod,
I'll fall asleep, and I'll wake, in God's, new heaven,
Sheltered safe, within the arms, of God.
(Chorus).......
I too, love this song as well, for it has, don't you all agree, Rapture-like overtones to it!?
Maranatha!
