Favor vs. Flood


"I said, I will confess my transgressions unto the LORD... in a time when Thou mayest be found: surely in the floods of great waters they shall not come nigh unto Him.  Thou art my Hiding Place" (Psalm 32:5-7).  "For whoso findeth Me findeth life, and shall obtain favor of the LORD" (Proverbs 8:35).  "The Bridegroom came... and the door was shut... Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of Man cometh" (Matthew 25:10,13). 

The Lord is calling souls today
To find forgiveness through His blood.
There is a danger in delay,
As in the day of Noah's flood. 

The Lord will be the Hiding Place
Of all who flee from condemnation,
If they will humbly seek His face
As sinners needing His salvation. 

The Lord extends His saving favor
By virtue of the work He did. 
Apart from Christ there is no Savior,
No other place we may be hid. 

O Lord, before their time is gone,  
When floods of judgment shall abound,
We pray that souls may yet be drawn  
To seek You while You may be found!
