Correct Counsel


“Jesus saith unto her, Woman, what have I to do with Thee?  Mine hour is not yet come.  His mother saith unto the servants, Whatsoever He saith unto you, do it…. Jesus saith unto them, Fill the water pots with water.  And they filled them up to the brim” (John 2:4-7).

The Word of our Savior is faithful and true.
His counsel is clear that will give us direction.
Whatever He says to us, let us now do:
Obey His instruction, and heed His correction.

What does the Lord have to do in our life?
Let us now listen to what He will say.
In times of temptation, of toil, or strife,
His counsel is waiting for those who obey.

Mary, the mother of Christ, had it right,
Who told them to do as commanded by Him.
This is the counsel of unerring light
Securing His blessing that’s filled to the brim.

Wonderful Counselor, merciful Savior,
We thank You that You have provided Your Word
To lead in the path of Your marvelous favor
Extended to those who will DO what they’ve heard.
