"Thy God helpeth thee" (1 Chronicles 12:18). "Lead me to the Rock that is higher than I. For Thou hast been a Shelter for me, and a strong Tower from the enemy" (Psalm 61:2,3). "He is a Shield unto them that put their trust in Him" (Proverbs 30:5). "Greater is He that is in you, than he that is in the world" (1 John 4:4).
There
is no helper that is higher
Than
God Almighty, our Creator.
Our
circumstances may be dire,
But
Jesus Christ our Lord is greater.
He
is the Rock whereon we stand.
He
is our Shelter and our Tower.
He
is our Shield near at hand
Who
guards us with His saving power.
So
let us to our Rock ascend,
And
to our Tower let us go!
Our
risen Lord, our greatest Friend,
Is
greater that our strongest foe!
How
safely we may trust in Christ;
How
rightly is He daily praised!
To
save us He was sacrificed;
To
justify us He was raised.
The
Lord of lords, the King of kings,
Descended
from His holy throne
To
shelter us beneath His wings
That
we might trust in Him alone.
O
Lord, our Helper from above,
Your
higher help has been displayed!
We
are astonished at Your love
And
at the ransom that You paid!
Lord,
send us to the harvest field,
Commissioned
with Your declaration,
To
show the higher help revealed
In
You, the Lord of our salvation.
