Fear takes hold with clutching grasp
And strangles us with gloom;
We recoil and seek refuge
In our protective room.
Visible reality
Looms much too large to fight;
Then God appears and whispers,
"Walk by faith, not by sight!"
Invisible reality
Restores to us sweet peace;
Faith anoints fear's clutching grasp
And hastens its release.
Invisible reality
Opens blind eyes to see
Armies in great multitudes
Protecting you and me.
We must stand firm in our faith,
Confront the visible
With weapons of God's warfare
That are invincible.
Invisible reality
Assures we'll always stand
Surrounded and protected
By God's invis'ble hand.

With the exception of 1 year living in Boston, Mass.,and two years in Hanau, Germany, I have lived in the historic state of Virginia all my life. I now reside in the beautiful Roanoke Valley. Though raised in a Christian home, I was in my early 20’s before making a commitment of my life to Christ. Since then I have spent many years in full-time ministry. I am currently employed as an accountant with a Christian child care center in Roanoke and also serve as the Office Manager and Scheduling Coordinator for singer and songwriter Mary Rice Hopkins who resides in California.
