My soul finds rest in God alone; my salvation comes from him. He alone is my rock and my fortress, I will never be shaken.
-Psalm 62:1-2
This is another favorite because I need to be reminded that God is the only way to find rest and peace! There is a song that we sing often in church that is based on this verse and it is always so encouaging to me. Here are the lyrics:
When troubles come the Lord is near.
My cries resound within His ear.
His proven word has brought me light
and steadfast love, my pure delight.
He is my Fortress, I will not be shaken.
He is the hope of my eternal salvation.
No power can stand against the people that God defends.
I love You, O Lord, My Strength!
When sin attempts to overcome.
In weakness, Christ has made me strong.
Through blood my ransomed heart He sees,
And rescues me from enemies.
He is my Fortress, I will not be shaken.
He is the hope of my eternal salvation.
No power can stand against the people that God defends.
I love You, O Lord, My Strength!
You surround me and sustain me.
You draw me near and embrace me.
You’re before me and behind me.
You invite me in and delight me.
You prepare me and protect me.
You correct my heart and perfect me.
You befriend me, You defend me.
You are my Strength, I will fear no more.
He is my Fortress, I will not be shaken.
He is the hope of my eternal salvation
No power can stand against His love…
You are my Fortress, I will not be shaken.
You are the hope of my eternal salvation.
No power can stand against the people that God defends.
I love You, O Lord, My Strength!
We really need to remember this verse right now. I also do like when we sing that song.
