"In the fear of the Lord is strong confidence: and His children shall have a place of refuge" (Proverbs 14:26). "And we desire that every one of you do show the same diligence to the full assurance of hope unto the end.... [We] have strong consolation who have fled for refuge to lay hold upon the hope set before us: which hope we have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and steadfast" (Hebrews 6:11,18,19).
What an anchor for the soul!
What a steadfast consolation!
What assurance strong and full
We have found in our salvation!
What confidence along the way!
What hope we have until the end!
What more could our Lord convey
To help us better comprehend?
For Jesus Christ has now prevailed
With mercy, truth, and grace.
His promises have never failed
In every time and place.
So do not let your confidence
Be hindered or diminished,
But feed your faith with diligence
Until your course is finished.
