OUR PEACE, OUR LIFE AND OUR HOPE

      He is our peace

      Amid a world of strife:

His blood secured our righteousness;

His cross assured God’s right to bless;

      He is our peace.

 

He is our life

Without whose light we grope:

The Christian’s path cannot be dim

Because our life is hid in Him;

He is our life.

 

He is our hope,

Not only for release:

How much His brethren will rejoice

To see His face and hear His voice:

     He is our hope.

THOUGHTS ON MICAH 1

(Micah 1: 2-3)

Micah said, "Hear, ye peoples, all of you; 

Hearken, O earth, and all that is therein";

So let us give God's word the attention due,

And heed when He alerts us to our sin.

Listen "and let the Lord Jehovah be

Witness against you" for it is "the Lord from

His holy temple" who can set you free:

He is the One that you may have reward from.

Now is the time of His outshining grace

"Jehovah cometh forth out of his place".

Yet He will come in pestilence and dearth

And tread on "the high places of the earth"

If we resist His grace without confession,

And meet our Judge still robed in our transgression.
