"I will sing of the mercies of the LORD forever: with my mouth will I make known Thy faithfulness to all generations. For I have said, Mercy shall be built up forever: Thy faithfulness shalt Thou establish in the very heavens.... Mercy and truth shall go before Thy face. Blessed is the people that know the joyful sound: they shall walk, O LORD, in the light of Thy countenance.... established forever as the moon, and as a faithful witness in heaven" (Psalm 89:1-37). "Adorn the doctrine of God our Savior in all things. For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men" (Titus 2:10,11).
The faithful moon reflects the light
That manifests the blazing sun.
It is a witness in the night,
Throughout the course that it will run.
The moon, with no light of its own,
Has been appointed in its way
From night to night to make it known,
The sun still shines from day to day.
So like the moon, we ought to be
A faithful witness of the face
Of Christ who went to Calvary,
Enlightening the world with grace.
The night surrenders to the morning;
The glorious day is coming soon.
So let us therefore be adorning
The light of God, as does the moon.
Lord, help us shine the light You gave
And be a witness that is true,
To show Your mercy that will save
Each sinner who will trust in You.
