Rest upon Reality

"[Hezekiah] spake comfortably to them saying, Be strong and courageous; be not afraid or dismayed for the king of Assyria, nor all the multitude that is with him: for there be more with us than with him: with him is an arm of flesh, but with us is the LORD our God to help us, and to fight our battles. And the people rested themselves upon the words of Hezekiah, king of Judah" (2 Chronicles 32:6-8).

Rest upon the Word of God
Obeying His command:
Guided by His staff and rod,
He'll lead us with His hand.

Rest upon reality,
And make it clearly known:
Our God who reigns eternally
Will not forsake His own!

Rest in God without alarm;
Fear not the hosts of hell:
With us is God's mighty arm
Who fights for us as well.

Look again to Calvary,
Recalling that great fight!
Rest upon reality,
Rejoicing in that sight.

The natural mind, of course, can't see
Our clear advantage now,
But one day every single knee
Shall to our Savior bow.

And every tongue shall then confess
Christ Jesus as the Lord,
Yet now we trust His faithfulness,
Which others have ignored.

Lord, we'll rest upon Your love,
That sweet reality,
Until we're face to face above
And for eternity.
