This Victory is His!

Through the darkness that flows and surrounds me,
constrained by powerlessness, nevertheless, I can see,
The overwhelming waves of Your endless compassion,
Their sound moves to the beat of the heart of the Son.
Without words to express the exaltation of worshiping You,
Struck dumb by the wonder, I raise heart and hands too.
So where is the fear that dares challenge faith now?
The enemy that flees when by Your praises cowed?
Naught can contain the tsunami of Your power,
When the faith of Your children, in Your presence, does flower!
Your people are singing as heaven's gates rejoice,
won through the fire and flood of sacrifice, by choice.
The music of gladness and gratitude swells!
It's the story of Your mercy and faithfullness, that it tells!
Exposed are the lies told by violence and fear,
that evil is stronger than our weakness and tears.
Through trials and suffering Your kingdom is won.
Your people, through humbleness exalted, along with, and because of, the Son.

I especially liked the phrase near the end, "Exposed are the lies told by violence and fear,
that evil is stronger than our weakness and tears." The devil is such a liar, because if he told the truth we'd never succomb to the temptations! Good post. Chris
