“Ye have seen what I did unto the Egyptians, and how I bare you on eagles' wings, and brought you unto Myself. Now therefore, if ye will obey My voice indeed, and keep my covenant, then ye shall be a peculiar treasure unto Me” (Exodus 19:4,5). “Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith… Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering, for He is faithful that promised... And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works… and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching” (Hebrews 10:22-25).
The
wrath of God has been revealed,
Which
Pharaoh thought he could resist.
His
hardened heart refused to yield;
Against
the LORD he clenched his fist.
We’ve
seen the outcome of that war
When
Egypt’s might was clearly broken
Because
they thought they could ignore
The
warnings which the Lord had spoken.
We’ve
also seen the tenderness
Which
God displays to those He brings
And
draws them to Himself to bless
The
souls He bears on eagles’ wings.
The
love of God, with boundless measure,
Has
brought us to this privileged place:
We
have become His purchased treasure,
Now
saved and ransomed by His grace!
So
let us therefore now draw near
To
God with faith that will not waver.
We
have His promise which is clear
Of
His eternal life and favor!
And
let us think of one another
As
those within God’s family,
That
we may thus remind each other
Of
Christ’s return especially.
O
Lord, we thank You for Your Word
Providing
such a solid ground!
Our
faith forever is assured
With
every promise therein found.
Lord,
help us clearly to declare
The
Gospel of Your love so tender:
On
eagles’ wings You still will bear
The
souls who trust You as Defender!
