Anchor of our Answer

"The eyes of the LORD preserve knowledge.... That thy trust may be in the LORD, I have made known to thee this day, even to thee. Have not I written to thee excellent things in counsels and knowledge, that I might make thee know the certainty of the words of truth, that thou mightest answer the words of truth to them that sent unto thee?" (Proverbs 22:12,19-21). "Wherefore, sirs, be of good cheer: for I believe God, that it shall be even as it was told me" (Acts 27:25).

The anchor of our trust today
Is in God's written Word.
His prophecies now on display
Make unbelief absurd.

That we may put in Him our trust,
God gives us certainty;
His Word is like an anchor thrust,
Unmoved eternally.

That we may answer those who ask
Why we have confidence,
The Lord has given us the task
To show His evidence.

To manifest that God has spoken
To those who ask a reason,
We show His prophecies unbroken,
Completed in their season.

The written Scriptures that we hold,
Our Lord preserved unflawed.
We trust the things therein we're told,
For we believe in God.
