Considerations of Comfort

orchidee



Tune: Lauds

('There's a spirit in the air')

2 Corinthians 1 v.3-5

********

Blessed be God, the Father He

Of our Lord Jesus Christ, see

The Father of mercies He

And God of all comfort be

 

He does comfort us in our

Tribulations, in their hour

That we may be able to

Comfort those in trouble too

 

It shall be with the comfort

That we from our God have sought

And which He gives us, so we

Share that comfort gratefully

 

For 'tis as the sufferings

Of Christ abound in us, [the] things

That trouble, consolations

Too abound, God us them brings

        Thanks Gold. Difficult to answer that, yes. Sometimes we (or I) am caught up in my own comfort and cosiness. At times we might forget things that are 'out there somewhere'.
