"Hezekiah... wrought that which was good and right and truth before the LORD his God... And in every work that he began... he did it with all his heart, and prospered" (1 Chronicles 31:20,21). "O God, my heart is fixed... I myself will awake early" (Psalm 108:1,2). "Commit thy works unto the LORD, and thy thoughts shall be established" (Proverbs 16:3). "The Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give His life a ransom for many" (Matthew 20:28).
It's
good for us to keep in mind
The
people who have pleased the Lord,
For
as we study them we find
The
diligence God will reward.
In
Hezekiah we can see
In
every work that he would start,
The
Lord gave him prosperity
In
what he did with all his heart.
He
did that which was good and right
And
truthful in the sight of God.
In
these things God will take delight
And
not the things that men applaud.
In
all the things that we begin
The
Lord has called us to be wise.
Do
not be turned aside by sin,
But
live before the Savior's eyes.
Now
let us fix our hearts at last
With
true commitment to our Savior.
This
life we live will soon be past;
Let's
honor Christ with our behavior.
Our
Savior told us why He came:
To
serve, to seek, and save the lost.
He
died to take away our shame,
And
pay our ransom's awful cost.
We've
seen, Lord, Your determination
In
Your commitment never swerving
To
pay the price for our salvation
And
bear the wrath we were deserving.
In
our commitments, Lord, to You,
We'd
finish well what we commence
In
all that's good, and right, and true,
To
praise You with our diligence.
Committed,
Lord, to run this race
From
our commencement to the end,
We
show the lost Your saving grace
And
on Your faithfulness depend.
