" God standeth in the congregation of the mighty; He judgeth.... Defend the poor and fatherless: do justice to the afflicted and needy" (Psalm 82:1-3). "Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his lord hath made ruler over his household, to give meat in due season? Blessed is that servant, whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing" (Matthew 24:45,46).
God in our midst is observing;
In each congregation He stands.
He sees who is faithfully serving,
According to what He commands.
He sees who delivers the poor,
And cares for the fatherless one.
He sees who would rather ignore
The justice of those who have none.
What will He find us pursuing
In the day we are called to His throne?
Will we be His servants so doing
His will that to us He made known?
Oh Lord, may You find us today,
And each day You graciously give,
Your servants who wisely obey
And faithfully, gratefully live.
