I  NEED  TO  KNOW

By "Rebekah" the Bride

(Eph.1:6; 2:8-9, 14-17; 2 Cor.5:19,21; Rom.5:1
Jn.10:27-29; Heb.13:5; 1 Jn.4:8-10; Ps.52:1; Jude 24)

***
I need to know that I=92m secure
Since I=92ve had the new birth;
Securely saved and kept by God,
As I walk on this earth.
I need to know that I=92m God=92s child,
And that I=92ll ever be;
To know I=92ll always be=20
A member of His family.
***
I need to know that I am saved
By what the Lord has done,
Not by my works but only by
The work of His dear Son.
I need to know that Christ=92s shed blood
Appeased our Holy God;
And now He is at peace with me,
As through this life I trod.
**
I need to know that God loves me,
No matter, come what may;
To know I cannot earn His love,
And know it=92s free each day.
I need to know that I am loved,
For it=92s my greatest need;
And knowing that in my life now
Is what makes me succeed.
***
I need to know God looks at me
And sees me in His Son,
And that I can just rest in what
The Lord for me has done.
I need to know His righteousness
Is mine, no need to earn,
And it=92s His job to maintain that;
A fact I want to learn.
***
I need to know I can=92t be plucked
Out of my Father=92s hand.
I need to know this precious truth,
And on it firmly stand.
"You'll never perish," Jesus says,
To me and all His sheep.
I need to know and just believe
That He my soul will keep.
***
I need to know that God accepts me
Every single day,
Because He sees me in His Son
And that there is no way
That He=92ll reject me, no, He won=92t;
I need to know it=92s true.
Or else my heart will fill with fear,
As this life I go through.
***
I cannot rest until I know
That it is really true,
That God will never leave this child,
No matter what I do.
Though my faith fails, I need to know
That faithful He will be.
I=92ll rest securely in His arms,
And have security.
***
I need to know that God is love,
To know that God is good,
Though bad things happen here on earth,
Things I=92ve not understood.
I need to know that God=92s still on=20
The throne, He=92s in control;
And know that I can surely trust Him
With my precious soul.
***
To know my Father=92s keeping me,
Gives such rest to my soul;
And makes me want to do His will,
And let Him have control.
That is the key to living life,
The Christian life, you see.
It=92s knowing how secure I am
For all eternity.
***
And now I know beyond a doubt,
For I believe it=92s true,
That God keeps me eternally
As He has promised to.
It=92s faith that gives me confidence,
Yes, faith, oh, what a gift!
And using it to just believe,
Has caused all doubts to lift.
