IN FEAR OF YOU

King David was the second king of Israel;

He had seen how King Saul had become evil.

He had also come across bloodthirsty men;

They had thoroughly cruel and wicked plans.

 

David refused to fight evil with wickedness;

He chose the difficult path of righteousness.

He had to face many wicked foes in his life;

He turned to God amidst terrible strife.

 

He grew in his knowledge of the LORD;

He determined to fully trust his God.

He sought the Lord in prayer urgently;

He believed that God would lead faithfully.

 

He had chosen to practise the fear of God;

He would exercise his trust fully in the Lord.

He would not fail to worship God amidst danger;

His faith in God would enable him to be stronger.
