Find Us Faithful

It is a bittersweet feeling knowing that God has called the senior pastor from my church back in Calgary on to a new ministry. He has led our church for many years and will be greatly missed. I was just reminiscing back many years ago on one of the old songs we used to sing in church by Steve Green called Find Us Faithful. I think it's one of my pastor's favorite songs and it has a great message in it.


"We're pilgrims on the journey of the narrow road
And those who've gone before us line the way
Cheering on the faithful, encouraging the weary
Their lives a stirring testament to God's sustaining grace

Surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses
Let us run the race not only for the prize
But as those who've gone before us
Let us leave to those behind us
The heritage of faithfulness passed on through godly lives

Chorus:
Oh may all who come behind us find us faithful
May the fire of our devotion light their way
May the footprints that we leave lead them to believe
And the lives we live inspire them to obey
Oh may all who come behind us find us faithful

After all our hopes and dreams have come and gone
And our children sift through all we've left behind
May the clues that they discover and the memories they uncover
Become the light that leads them to the road we each must find"


Pastor Moses, thanks for your faithful leadership and dedication in serving the Lord all these years. May the Lord continue to bless you and keep you wherever you go and give you peace!
