"And when they had set them in the midst, they asked, By what power, or by what name, have ye done this? Then Peter, filled with the Holy Ghost said unto them... by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, Whom ye crucified, Whom God raised from the dead.... This is the Stone which was set at nought of you builders, which is become the Head of the corner. Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men whereby we must be saved. Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John... they marvelled" (Acts 4:7-13).
The ones who know the Scriptures well
Can see the plan of God unfold.
The hearts wherein God's Word will dwell
Shall be obedient and bold.
But how can we be bold to speak
It we don't study, to our shame?
Shall we thus urge the lost to seek
And trust alone our Savior's name?
Our boldness, then, is by the Book
Inspired by God's Spirit.
Lift up your eyes, and thereby look
On those who need to hear it!
