OUR ROCK OF SAFETY

"Which hope we have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and stedfast, and which entereth into that within the veil;"

Hebrews 6:19
King James Version

Lizzie DeArmond wrote the beautiful hymn "ANCHOR YOUR BARK". I love the words in this inspiring hymn.

"Look well to your cables, my brother, For severed the faith strands may be; Take heed lest you slip from your moorings, And storm tossed lie out on life’s sea.

Drifting away, drifting away, Far from the home of the blest; Then anchor yourself on the Christ-rock For under its shadow is rest.

Concealed by the gathering darkness, Are breakers of sin just at hand; O soul! there is many a danger To keep you from gaining the land.

So anchor your bark to the Christ-rock, And ask the dear Jesus to be Your pilot, to guide you in safety To the shores of eternity."

Rev. Edward Mote wrote one of my favorite hymns "My Hope is Built On Nothing Less". "My hope is built on nothing less than Jesus' blood and righteousness; I dare not trust the sweetest frame, but wholly lean on Jesus' Name.

On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand: all other ground is sinking sand; all other ground is sinking sand."

Thank God for Jesus, our solid Rock. I love You, Jesus and one happy joyous day I will see You face to face. Thank You for loving me and for dying for me.
