There once was a man who did fear
The power of death drawing near
But Jesus came down
To save and to crown
All those who in faith persevere

This may involve sharing the message of God’s love with others, serving those in need, and striving to live in obedience to God’s will.

Ultimately, the practical response to this passage is to allow it to shape our perspective on life and to deepen our relationship with God as we seek to live out the truth of his redemptive love in our daily lives.
