Your Saviour is Near!
In times of difficulty, it seems the Lord is quite far away. But it will interest you to know that it is in those times that He is very near, preparing the grounds to reveal his glory.
Be encouraged with the hymn below, knowing that your Saviour is near;
Begone, unbelief; my Saviour is near, and for my relieve will surely appear. By prayer let me wrestle, and He will perform; with Christ in the vessel, I smile at the storm.
Though dark be my way, since He is my guide, ’Tis mine to obey, ’tis His to provide. Though cisterns be broken and creatures all fail, The word He has spoken shall surely prevail.
His love in time past forbids me to think He’ll leave me at last in trouble to sink. While each Ebenezer I have in review confirms His good pleasure to help me quite through.
Why should I complain of want or distress, temptation or pain? He told me no less; The heirs of salvation, I know from His word. Through much tribulation must follow their Lord.
Since all that I meet shall work for my good, The bitter is sweet, the medicine food; Though painful at present, ‘twill cease before long; And then, O how pleasant the conqueror’s song!
Oh yes! No matter the situation, the Lord will never forsake his own. He is very near.
Stay Blessed!
MHB 511.
Shalom!
