A Little More
Sometimes it seems so daunting to pursue this life we live
Sometimes it seems there's just no more within us left to give
But then we look at Jesus and the burden that He bore
The cross that held His Sacrifice and crown of thorns He wore
And wonder was it worth it that great Sacrifice He gave
The scars that will forever be reminders of the grave
Wherein He graced three days of His existence as foretold
By prophesies within His Book of Knowledge that we hold
That from its first inception when recorded by the men
God called to lead His people we begin to comprehend
The battle that's been raging from before Eve saw the tree
And let the devil tempt her to pursue iniquity
That battle that had started long before at heaven's throne
Which in the heart of Lucifer he chose to make his own
By any means he could pursue to win the hearts of them
Who sympathetic to his cause would join the side of him
And from that time the choice he made that brings us where we are
That brings us to this feeling that some more is just too far
Has been within the Father's view a choice that soon will end
With Judgment where we'll have in Court the sinner's truest Friend
And there we'll count it perfect this hard path we walked before
Wherein we'll see each step He led to help us trust Him more
To be our Lord and Surety to be our Strength our All
When in this world our little seemed to be to us so small
But in His eyes He sees us as potential that He brings
Before the eyes of others who still think that other things
Have value for this moment when to us the future's more
Than all that's wanting to be had the devil has in store
It's time and opportunity to live as one with Him
Whom angels cherish as they're blessed to have Him walk with them
But they don't have the honor that's reserved for us on earth
To have Him One with them the way He is with us from birth
So when you feel discouraged when your life seems hard to take
Remember we've but little more to do for Jesus' sake
And seek by faith His mighty grace to give your all for Him
Who wants the world to see His life displayed through us for them
Matthew 5:1-16; Isaiah 41:10; Romans 8:12-18
