"Arise, O God, plead Thine own cause... the tumult of those that rise up against Thee increaseth continually" (Psalm 74:22,23). "The thoughts of the righteous are right: but the counsels of the wicked are deceit... The way of a fool is right in his own eyes: but he that hearkeneth unto counsel is wise... The lip of truth shall be established for ever: but a lying tongue is but for a moment" (Proverbs 12:5,15,19).
The
Lord our God shall yet arise
And
plead His own eternal cause.
When
every fleeting falsehood dies,
The
truth of God shall never pause.
The
tumult of the enemy
We
see deceptively increase,
But
truth stands for eternity,
And
in a moment, lies will cease.
For
now it seems the time is long
In
which the lies of Satan spread,
As
fools declare that right is wrong
And
scoff at what the Lord has said.
All
those who heed the Lord's report
Will
trust the counsel God commends.
The
tumult of God's foe is short;
The
truth, in contrast, never ends.
The
lip of truth shall be forever,
But
every lie shall God expose,
Like
guards who saw their vain endeavor
When
on the third day Jesus rose.
O
Lord, we thank You for Your light
Exposing
falsehood we have heard
And
clearly showing what is right
By
the instruction from Your Word.
Lord,
lead us forth now to engage
The
tumult of the foe's deceit!
Eternal
truth from Scripture's page
Assures
the enemy's defeat!
