His Loving Discipline Our Loving Fear

The eye of the Lord is upon all who fear Him

He sees everything, His light is never dim

A loving fear that needs to last until our final breathe

For them that fear Him, His mercy delivers their soul from death

He will supply all our needs and that includes the discipline we need for our good

Even if I try hard not to sin, I know that at any time I could

He disciplines us also in a loving way, for only He knows what is best

I might not understand at the time, but I trust He loves me and am being blessed

The Lord is my strength and my shield

Upon the prompting of His Holy Spirit, I try always to yield

But sometimes without thinking I run out into the street after my ball

My emotions overtake me and I ignore my Father’s loving call

So, I am so glad He instructs me in the way I should go

For without His loving discipline it would be dangerous for me to grow

He Is For Us

The gospel of your salvation brings about the revelation

Which is Christ in you the hope of glory

It takes you out of yourself and puts you in His story

You will be clothed with the garments of salvation and a robe of righteousness

Your soul shall be joyful in God and you will become His likeness

The righteousness which is of God by faith in His Son

Nullifies the sin, that in your old life, you thought was fun

When we receive Christ, His spirit becomes our inner guide

Never again, when you hear God’s voice, will you have to hide

Now you can talk to God and He will hear and take away our fears

No more hiding and being afraid for he even wipes away our tears

He will perform great and mighty things through us for His glory and His pleasure

For the scope of His power in us no one can measure

So, let God full you and guide you, just see what he will do through you

Remember, in Christ you are a new creation, all things will become new
