Our GOD Reigns
Richard Groff 1957 (Pottstown, Pa.)
Our estate is poor but our inheritance is rich
Our flesh will not last past the morning
But when the sun rises the new things will come
With blessings and children, you are bearing
The rich man will die and his hope will be gone
His power will no more sustain him
But all he took from the poor with his greed
The Lord will restore when he is reigning
