Dear friends whom I long to see,
Who are my joy and crown;
Stand in the Lord to be,
For His glory shines down.

I appeal and beseech,
To agree in the Lord;
In the same mind to teach,
Being in one accord.

I say to you to aid,
Those who struggle so much;
They seem to be afraid,
In the Gospel as such.

Because your name is in,
Shows in the Book of Life;
If you live without sin,
As you cope with the strife.

Joy in the Lord always,
Telling you to rejoice;
As you worship and praise,
Praising Him with your voice.

Let everyone see,
Your humbled gentleness;
For the future to be,
Of His gracious goodness.

Do not be so anxious,
Be careful of nothing;
Make His Word contagious,
Of the grace it will bring.

Through prayer and petition,
Along with thanksgiving;
Without inhibition,
Treasuring your living.

Because the peace of God,
Passes understanding;
As you honor and laud,
Though life is demanding.

It guards your heart and mind,
In Jesus our Lord;
Keeping you humbly kind,
To keep in one accord.

So, what you may have learned,
As you heard and received;
That your mindset has earned,
In what faith has believed.
