Infinite Issues


"Praise ye the LORD... He healeth the broken in heart... His understanding is infinite" (Psalm 147:1-5).  "Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life" (Proverbs 4:23).  "The house was filled with... the brightness of the LORD'S glory" (Ezekiel 10:4).  "Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of His Christ... by the blood of the Lamb... Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them!" (Revelation 12:10-12). 

Let praise arise to Christ our Lord
Who knows the pain of broken hearts!
His understanding has explored
The cost for healing He imparts.

Though God's great love is intimate,
His justice is not compromised.
His understanding infinite
Extends salvation He devised. 

So let us guard our heart with care
That Christ alone may rule therein. 
The brightness of His glory there
Shall purge the darkness of our sin. 

How infinite the issues are,
O Lord, involving Your salvation
Which draws us near who were so far
And fills our heart with jubilation!
