Eph.2:14
For He Himself is our peace...
(Today's poem was inspired by the first line
in today's Daily Bread Devotion scripture reading)
...and then, the outer fringes of His glory
filled the heavens where 'evidence of things unseen'
grants glimpses of Him!

Against the Cornerstone that keeps faith anchored in the gale
No longer owned by sin’s uncouth, lawless captivity
The delight of the Lord, no mortal can impart
From the wealth of His Word, He gives desires of the heart
His promises endure, nothing can take the place
Of joy complete; through the assurance of amazing grace
Peace; what sweet recompense when faith has made us whole
Hell's gates cannot prevail against the Savior of the soul

Why, oh, why is it so easy to slip into the snare
of wanting what we see rather than what we know
(if the truth has set us free)
Oh!! Pray it has!
And if it has
oh, pray for all who still do not know the truth!
John 8:32
Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”
Song by Matthew Smith
Jesus! what a Friend for sinners!
Jesus! Lover of my soul;
Friends may fail me, foes assail me,
He, my Savior, makes me whole.
Hallelujah! what a Savior!
Hallelujah! what a Friend!
Saving, helping, keeping, loving,
He is with me to the end.
Jesus! what a Strength in weakness!
Let me hide myself in Him.
Tempted, tried, and often failing,
He, my Strength, my victory wins.
Hallelujah! what a Savior!
Hallelujah! what a Friend!
Saving, helping, keeping, loving,
He is with me to the end.
Jesus! what a Help in sorrow!
While the billows over me roll,
Even when my heart is breaking,
He, my Comfort, helps my soul.
Hallelujah! what a Savior!
Hallelujah! what a Friend!
Saving, helping, keeping, loving,
He is with me to the end.
Jesus! I do now receive Him,
More than all in Him I find.
He has granted me forgiveness,
I am His, and He is mine.
Hallelujah! what a Savior!
Hallelujah! what a Friend!
Saving, helping, keeping, loving,
He is with me to the end
Hallelujah! what a Savior!
Hallelujah! what a Friend!
Saving, helping, keeping, loving,
He is with me to the end.
