Shadow of His Shield

Read:  Psalm 47 / Proverbs 2 / 2 Chronicles 17 / Titus 3

Psalm 47:1,9 O clap your hands, all ye people... The shields of the earth belong unto God: he is greatly exalted.
Proverbs 2:6,7 For the LORD...  layeth up sound wisdom for the righteous: he is a buckler to them that walk uprightly.
2 Chronicles 17:3 And the LORD was with Jehoshaphat, because he walked in the first ways of his father David.
Titus 3:5 Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost.

O clap your hands!  With joy applaud
The Lord who has become our Shield! 
Beneath the shadow of our God
We triumph on the battlefield! 

The wise are walking in God’s ways,
And they are sheltered by their choice
As they resolve to give God praise,
And wisely, they obey His voice.
