The Strong Tower


The Strong Tower

A song of praise
In troubled days
To Whom we kneel
Our hearts reveal

A restful peace
From fear release
A constant Friend
His flock attends

Through wind and rain
Through blackest pain
With this one shout
We conquer doubt—

Blessed be the Name of the LORD!

**********
Proverbs 18:10 
The name of the LORD is a strong tower: the righteous runneth into it, and is safe. 
Job 1:20-21
Then Job arose, and rent his mantle, and shaved his head, and fell down upon the ground, and worshipped, 
And said, Naked came I out of my mother's womb, and naked shall I return thither: the LORD gave, and the LORD hath taken away; blessed be the name of the LORD. 

                        Job did not say “Blessed be the name of the LORD” only when things were going well—this was his Rock when everything had fallen apart. In your worst day the shout of your soul should still be “Blessed be the Name of the LORD”! Run to this Name—learn it well—sing the hymn “Blessed be the Name of the LORD”.
