"Now when Mephibosheth (Heb. breathing shame)… was come unto David… David said unto him, Fear not… thou shalt eat bread at my table continually" (2 Samuel 9:6,7). "O clap your hands, all ye people… for the shields of the earth belong unto God: He is greatly exalted" (Psalm 47:1,9). "He is a Shield unto them that put their trust in Him" (Proverbs 30:5). "O wretched man that I am! Who shall deliver me from the body of this death? I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord" (Romans 7:24,25).
Mephibosheth
to David came,
For
he would eat at David's table.
The
king would shield him from shame
As
he had promised and was able.
We
see a portrait of our Savior
Who
shields us from shame as well,
For
all who trust in Him find favor
From
Christ who rescues us from hell.
O
clap your hands to thus applaud
Our
Lord who was victorious!
The
shields of our gracious God
Protecting
us are glorious!
We
thank You, Lord of our salvation,
For
dying for us on the cross
To
shield us from condemnation,
From
shame, and from eternal loss!
