Good and Faithful

I've never seen an angel. I seldom hear your voice. But I know you sent Jesus to offer us all a choice. I know I've felt your glory. I've felt your mercy and peace. I know you're writing a story about how much you love me. I've never seen an angel. I don't have to to know you're real, because I can feel you beside me taking away my fear, giving me peace, showering me with your mercy and grace. And when one day I see you face-to-face, I hope you'll say that I ran my race to the fullest. "Well done, good and faithful servant."
