BY THIS I KNOW

Sometimes the wicked make us feel afraid;

Fear assails and dark doubts come instead.

There is some uncertainty in our heart;

We are not sure if Mercy, God would impart.

 

The heart seeks to know the Lord’s Will;

Would He continue to give Mercy still?

Seeking God in prayer must be done;

Faith in Him would affect the outcome.

 

“By this I know,” was an expression of assurance;

The Lord would help us build strong confidence.

He would not let the wicked be triumphant;

This fact alone indicates God’s presence.

 

He would deliver us and cause us to seek His face;

He would continue to bestow mercy and grace.

Our heart must regain full trust in God’s name;

Our lips may echo the words, “Amen and Amen!”
