Trouble In The Land

Listen people,
we are in trouble,
in our land.

God has drawn
the line of demarcation
in the sand.

What do we do,
where do we go from here?

We humble ourselves
and pray, casting out all the fear.

We humble ourselves
under the Mighty
Hand of God.

In the time,
that will come,
we will not face Ichabod.

He calls us
to Himself that we
may praise Him.

He stays always near,
as we see Him,
through eyes, undim.

Although,
trouble will come,
we need not fear.

He is our God
and He will
stay to us, near.

He fights
the battle that
is already won.

Jesus is in charge,
"It Is Finished,"
said His Son.

We need only
to keep our eyes
on the Lord, our strength.

Although,
the sands may sink,
His Arm has no length.

We must praise Him
and rejoice
in Him this day.

He will guide us
moment by moment, in
His Word we must stay.

His perfect love in us,
casts out
all of our fear.

As we humble ourselves,
under His authority,
He wipes away our tear.

Isaiah 10:22-23

22 For though your people, O Israel, be as the sand of the sea,
A remnant of them will return;
The destruction decreed shall overflow
with righteousness.

23 For the Lord God of hosts
Will make a determined end
In the midst of all the land.

Jeremiah 5:22

22 Do you not fear Me?' says the Lord.
'Will you not tremble at My presence,
Who have placed the sand as the bound of the sea,
By a perpetual decree, that it cannot pass beyond it?
And though its waves toss to and fro,
Yet they cannot prevail;
Though they roar, yet they cannot pass over it.

Isaiah 32:3, 15-20 NKJV

3 The eyes of those who see will not be dim,
And the ears of those who hear will listen.

15 Until the Spirit is poured upon us from on high,
And the wilderness becomes a fruitful field,
And the fruitful field is counted as a forest.

16 Then justice will dwell in the wilderness,
And righteousness remain in the fruitful field.

17 The work of righteousness will be peace,
And the effect of righteousness,
quietness and assurance forever.

18 My people will dwell in a peaceful habitation, In secure dwellings, and in quiet resting places,

19 Though hail comes down on the forest,
And the city is brought low in humiliation.

20 Blessed are you who sow beside all waters,
Who send out freely the feet of the ox and the donkey.
