Helper Heard


"Help us, O God of our salvation, for the glory of Thy name: and deliver us, and purge away our sins, for Thy name's sake" (Psalm 79:9).  "Blessed is the man that heareth Me… For whoso findeth Me findeth life, and shall obtain favor of the LORD.  But he that sinneth against Me wrongeth his own soul: all they that hate Me love death" (Proverbs 8:34-36).  "Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear My voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with Me" (Revelation 3:20). 

Our God is helping those who hear,
Responding to His invitation. 
He is a Savior who is near;
He is the God of our salvation. 

All those who hear and heed the Savior
Shall find redemption, free and full,
But those who will reject His favor
Shall wrong their own eternal soul.    

How strange it is that men could hate
The Lord who loved them to the end.   
They soon shall know (but then too late)
Their soul could have no better Friend. 

O Lord our Helper, we have heard
Your voice when we were lost in sin! 
We take the message of Your Word
And pray that hearts will let You in.
