REFORM THE FAMILY, LORD
By Jim ElliffReform the family, Lord,
By truth renew its flame
In homes where fathers take their place
And Christ the Lord is named.
The changeless Word implant
Within the youthful mind.
And faith-filled prayers to God restore
With hymns and songs in kind.
Raise up those godly men
With skill to guide their own,
And wives, supporting, full of grace
Whose seeds of love are sown.
A day of pow’r bring in
As homes reclaim their place,
Adorned by godly attributes
And manifested grace.
To Christ we’ll lift our praise,
When by His grace we’ve come
To breathe the heavenly air again
Of holy, joyful homes.

"Faith is putting your confidence in Christ to save you from your life of sin and the hell you deserve. The eaglet had no one he could trust but his father. He looked to his father alone for help. And you have no hope but Christ. He died for sinners like you. In fact, He does everything to save the one who comes to Him. Each believer will someday find that even the desire to turn to Him is a gift from Him."
