"Order my steps in Thy Word: and let not any iniquity have dominion over me" (Psalm 119:133). "Discretion shall preserve thee, understanding shall keep thee" (Proverbs 2:11). "And ye were now turned, and had done right in My sight... But ye turned and polluted My name" (Jeremiah 34:15,16). "Now the God of peace, that brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great Shepherd of the sheep... Make you perfect in every good work to do His will" (Hebrews 13:20,21).
We
need to hear our Savior's voice
Above
the sound of our opinion.
Discretion
rightly makes the choice
That
God, not sin, shall have dominion.
Beware
of sin that needs uprooting
That
may return again to claim
Dominion
that will be polluting
The
testimony of Christ's name.
We
once like sheep had gone astray,
But
now by Christ we are directed,
Who
works in us His perfect way
By
which we daily are perfected.
O
Lord, perfect in us Your will
To
manifest in us Your pleasure,
And
purge the sin polluting still
Your
name we should exalt and treasure.
