THE LORD KNOWS HOW TO DELIVER THE GODLY

We exist in a greatly troubled world today;

The sceptre of the wicked seems to hold sway.

The godly find it difficult just to survive;

They have to battle struggles and strife.

 

Noah lived in a world of great wickedness;

In contrast, he chose to live in righteousness.

He was mocked and scorned by everyone;

But he laboured from morn to set of sun.

 

God delivered Noah and his small family;

They had learned to trust God implicitly.

God knows how to deliver the godly from shame;

He will fulfil His word and glorify His own name.

 

Lot lived in the twin cities of Sodom and Gomorrah;

Each day, he witnessed deeds of sin and horror.

God delivered Lot in time of great distress;

We may trust in the Lord’s absolute faithfulness.
