| Thus saith the Lord unto you, Be not afraid nor dismayed by reason of this great multitude; for the battle is not yours, but God’s. (2 Chron. 20:15) |
| Dearly, beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord. Therefore if thine enemy hunger, feed him; if he thirst, give him drink: for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire on his head. (Rom. 12:19‑20) |
He goes before you, O my heart!
Through deepest depth, o’er highest height;
He knows where lurks the ambushed foe
And what the battles you must fight;
He sees the pitfalls you will meet,
The place where you will faint or fall;
The weariness, the pain, the tears —
He goes before; He knows it all. |
