"By this I know that Thou favorest me, because mine enemy doth not triumph over me. And as for me, Thou upholdest me in mine integrity, and settest me before Thy face forever" (Psalm 41:11,12). "Lay not wait, O wicked man, against the dwelling of the righteous; spoil not his resting place: for a just man falleth seven times, and riseth up again" (Proverbs 24:15,16). "I am ready to preach the Gospel… For I am not ashamed of the Gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation" (Romans 1:15,16).
There is no
triumph for our foes,
Though Satan's
hosts are great in number.
The reason (God
Almighty knows)
Is that our Savior
does not slumber.
The Lord upholds
us with His arm
In every circumstance
and place.
He shelters us
from every harm
And counsels us
before His face.
We stumble, yet we
rise again
Because our
Savior lifts us up.
Why should we
fear or falter when
His faithful
favor fills our cup?
O Lord, how
faithful is Your favor,
Which in Your
Gospel is proclaimed!
O grant us
ready, bold behavior
To preach Your
Gospel unashamed.
