This is the Confidence

 

 

There’s a Refuge from the wicked darts

Assurance through the test

A Place of peace and safety

Where my mind can find some rest

 

A Knowledge of the Promises

A Trust in God above

Who watches for His children

Enfolds them in His love

 

Yes, Prayer will walk the Pathway

Left by wounded, bloodied feet

In the fear of the Lord to seek His Will

He our Confidence Complete

Proverbs 14:26

In the fear of the LORD is strong confidence:

 and his children shall have a place of refuge.

 

1John 5:14-15

And this is the confidence that we have in him, that,

if we ask any thing according to his will,

he heareth us:

And if we know that he hear us, whatsoever we ask,

we know that we have the petitions that we desired of him.

 

The Power of His Might

 The Power of His Might

 

Building a tower to Heaven

The Pharisee picked up his tools

His zeal to obey the letter

Caused pride to muddy the rules

 

This man was not good in his heart

He walked just like those he did hate

But in his mind, he was righteous

And all that he did was first rate

 

But that would never be enough

To satisfy the cost

There is only one Way—

Our Jesus and His Cross

 

The Pharisee didn’t have the power

That brought Christ down from Glory

Nor did his goodness have the strength

Of Resurrection’s story

 

The righteousness that truly counts

Is God’s and His alone

For only the power of His might

Has strength to sin atone

 

Galatians 6:12-15, Philippians 3:4-9, Romans 10, 11:6
