“I will hear what God the LORD will speak: for He will speak peace unto His people… Mercy and truth are met together; righteousness and peace have kissed each other” (Psalm 85:8-10). “They crucified Him… When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, He said, It is finished” (John 19:30).
I’ll
wait to hear what God will speak;
Let
all the other chatter cease!
The
Lord will answer those who seek,
And
He will show to them His peace.
I
hear the word that He has spoken:
His
mercy and His truth have met!
Their
bond of peace shall not be broken;
His
promise He shall not forget.
His
righteousness and peace kissed:
They
are forever reconciled!
Though
judgment cannot be dismissed,
His
blood can cleanse the soul defiled!
These
words have been fulfilled in Christ
Who
suffered on the cross for us.
The
Lamb of God was sacrificed;
His
grace and truth are marvelous!
I
scarcely now can take it in
That
Christ my Lord has died for me
To
take away my dreadful sin
And
save my soul eternally!
It’s
not my word but rather HIS
That
fills me with this confidence:
He
said it’s FINISHED, so it IS!
I’m
resting in my Lord’s defense.
O
Lord, I’ve waited for Your word
For
comfort, for admonishment,
And
for instruction which I’ve heard
That
leaves me in astonishment!
I’ve
waited for Your word of grace,
Amazed
to hear, Lord, all You did
That
I might find my Hiding Place
In
You where I am safely hid!
