A BANNER OF TRUTH

Banners were flags used by the military;

They were used to uplift all in the army.

Banners brought much encouragement;

Banished were fear and discouragement.

 

A Banner of truth was given by God;

It brought hope to all who feared the LORD.

A Banner signalled God’s Presence;

Courage amidst battle was important.

 

Banners rallied people to fight on bravely;

The LORD would save most wonderfully.

The challenge was to trust amidst danger;

To conflicts the LORD was no Stranger.

 

Fears may come but there must be trust;

There must be faith in God’s righteousness.

Let the Banner of truth rally all who fear God;

Let us exercise even greater trust in the LORD.
