Praise
God by whom we’re sanctified,
As
overhead He spreads His wings!
In
Him alone we safely hide:
Our
Refuge is the King of kings!
We
know our enemies are strong;
We
wrestle not with flesh and blood.
Be
steadfast, for it won’t be long:
Their
end shall come in like a flood.
The
Lord beholds the ways of man;
He
ponders every thought and deed.
He’s
given us our battle plan:
We
go to Him for every need!
In
Christ we find our strategy:
The
Lord Himself is our Defense!
His
truth shall surely make us free
When
coupled with obedience!
We
see the brevity of life,
For
soon we’re called to fly away,
Yet
Christ gives triumph in the strife
To
those who trust Him and obey.
We
know at last how it will end:
The
battle lines are clearly drawn.
Our
Lord from heaven shall descend,
And
every foe shall soon be gone.
The
beast shall gather then His hordes,
Who
think they’ll overcome the Lamb.
Behold
our King, the Lord of lords,
And
tremble at the great I AM!
For
Christ, the Lamb, shall thus be greeted
By
Satan’s armies in that hour,
Yet
with a Word they’ll be defeated,
Confronted
by our Savior’s power!
We
thank You for this future glance
Of
when the battle shall be through,
So
in our present circumstance,
We’ll
place our trust, O Lord, in You.
Lord,
even as the conflict rages
And
souls yet blindly march like cattle,
We
show to them the Scripture’s pages
That
You may save them in this battle.
Lord,
help us show them all Your grief
In
Your defense for them so strong
And
that their life, at best, is BRIEF
And
their eternity is LONG!
