Something To Unmask

We ought to always cry
For a heart that seeks for Christ
As if in our lives He was missing

Oh, what satisfaction it will give us!
If we feed on His goodness every day,
To know Him and enjoy Him
Will surely lead to an eternal, joyful survey.

At times we are idle;
Remember this truth and cultivate it in your life:
That our assurance neither rests on emotion
Nor in ourselves, but in Christ alone.

You who are far from Christ,
Know that He alone lived sinlessly.
Yet suffered and died in our place,
You'll be saved if you trust His work's sufficiency.
