Keeper.....

There’s no need to worry if the sun should fade away
And the rose in all its glory lies on beds of solemn gray
If the curtains in the eastern sky should part at brink of dawn
Revealing teardrops in my eye, I know I’ll carry on
For as the endless ages roll
There is a Keeper of the soul

Life may take a tender heart and pierce it with its sorrow
Sin may take its bitter dart and blur hope in tomorrow
Disappointment has its day and victory does too
Jesus is the only way and He will see us through
Only He can make us whole
He is the Keeper of the soul

Laughter is a moments sun and tears the rains of life
Soon this journey will be done, its victories and strife
And all the treasures of this earth we won’t need anymore
For nothing on this sinful berth will pass through Heaven’s door
Then let the ceaseless ages roll
With the Keeper of the soul

have passed away. Rev.21:4
