Wisely Work

Read:  Psalm 125 / Proverbs 23 / Nehemiah 6 / Hebrews 2

 

Psalm 125:1 ~ They that trust in the LORD shall be as mount Zion, which cannot be removed, but abideth forever.

Proverbs 23:17,18 ~ Let not thine heart envy sinners: but be thou in the fear of the LORD all the day long. For surely there is an end; and thine expectation shall not be cut off.

Nehemiah 6:9 ~ For they all made us afraid, saying, Their hands shall be weakened from the work, that it be not done. Now therefore, O God, strengthen my hands.

Hebrews 2:9 ~ But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels for the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honor; that he by the grace of God should taste death for every man. 

 

We wisely trust what God has proved,

And thus, we have an expectation

That we, by grace, cannot be moved,

Since Christ is Lord of our salvation.

 

We wisely work as God commands

As long as He shall give us breath

To live with strengthened hearts and hands

Since Christ for us has tasted death.
