An early chill now fills the air
And soon the sun its warmth will share
As for the day we all prepare
Our joyful show of hope and care
Let’s join together in a prayer
A loving God is always there !
An early chill now fills the air

Let’s join together in a prayer
A loving God is always there !
If life were like a baseball game
If sportsmanship brought most great fame
And bases were our only aim
We’d garner love and glory claim.
But life is more intense, devout
It’s faith and truth God is about
We hear the words His umpires shout
You reach the end and learn “you’re out”.
So be it when the inning’s o’er
If that is all that we can score
Before time closes its last door
We could have reached for so much more !
My tears, dear Lord are for the weak
For those who have no power to speak
So many voices to be heard
They cannot hear the sacred word.
They live in fear and discontent
Apart from truth their years are spent
Imprisoned, bullied, overrun
Both old and young their dreams undone.
Our God above does not relent
For those in need care will be sent
And soon to come His time will be
When He shall set His children free !
I look around, what do I see
A world debauched in infamy
My heart cries out, Lord help us all
Please save us from old Satan’s call.
The evil that occurs right here
Weighs heavy on eyes, mind and ear
Where is the strength we need to find
The courage to leave sin behind
Desert us not, dear gracious God
The path ahead seems really hard !
