Unfailing Light


Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God.
Matt.5:9

  

Thy Word is a lamp to my feet; the darkness of this world
Would overcome save for the light by Thy true Word unfurled
Greater is He within than this world’s total sum
Of armies; with Thy word oh Father, we will overcome

Save us, oh Lord our God with Thy unfailing love
Keep us from being partakers when push might turn to shove
Bless the peacemakers, Lord;  be our strength and stay
As we study Thy faithful Word Your lamp will light the way

Be merciful Oh, Lord and comfort our lament
The wicked will have their reward, the proud their punishment
Then, as we cling to Thee and the Lamp of Thy word
Let your face shine on us and fill us with Your love, oh Lord

 Psalm 31

23 Love the Lord, all his faithful people!
    The Lord preserves those who are true to him,
    but the proud he pays back in full.
24 Be strong and take heart,
    all you who hope in the Lord.
