“The
Stone which the builders
refused is become the Head Stone
of the corner. This is the LORD'S doing;
it is marvelous in our eyes” (Psalm
118:22,23). “Lay not wait, O wicked man, against the dwelling of the
righteous; spoil not his resting place:
for a just man falleth
seven times, and riseth up again” (Proverbs 24:15,16). “Looking unto Jesus, the Author and Finisher
of our faith; who for the joy
that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down
at the right hand of the throne of God” (Hebrew 12:2,3).
The
Stone which builders once refused
Is
now our Sure Foundation.
Behold
our Savior, once abused,
The
Founder of Salvation!
How
marvelous to longing eyes
It
is to see this done
By
God, who is supremely wise,
By
sending forth His Son!
The
enemy in waiting lies
Against
our Resting Place.
Though
he condemns, God justifies
And
raises us by grace!
We
look to Jesus Christ alone
To
finish what He started,
Who
gives us access to His throne,
That
grace may be imparted.
O
Lord, we thank you for assurance
That
time cannot diminish!
You
are the Founder of endurance
Until
the day we finish.
