THE LORD IS NEAR

How wonderful to know that God is near;

And our prayers of concern, He will hear.

It lifts up the heart to trust more confidently;

When we know that God cares so faithfully.

 

The eyes of the LORD will be ever watchful;

His ears will also be dedicated and faithful.

The cries of His children are dear to God’s heart;

Grace, mercy and strength He will surely impart.

 

The wicked would only see God’s stern face!

If only they would repent and seek His grace.

But if they continue to be unrepentant to His call;

Grave and sad consequences on them would befall.

 

Our challenge is to have a contrite heart;

From the humble, God would never depart!

Let us seek to walk with God diligently;

He will bless our lives most faithfully!
