In Nothing Be Anxious - Exo. 14:14
The Lord shall fight for you, and ye shall hold your peace. Exodus 14:14 This ancient foe called Worry, A ruthless buccaneer, Whose weapons are destructive. Depression, doubt, and fear, Still seeks to conquer daily, Controls a motley crew, In subtle forms of mischief, His deadly work to do. He boards the storm-tossed vessel, This pirate in the strife, And robs the weary traveller Who sails the sea of life. He takes the heart's rich treasures, And plunders gems of sleep: He takes, but leaves behind him, A tortured mind to keep! O pow'r that ever triumphs- Effectual fervent prayer! O Love that lifts all burdens With tender hands of care! O peace, a mighty fortress, Encircling day by day! O grace that keeps securely And drives the foe away! Then trust the heavenly Captain, He is a Man of War, To apprehend the tyrant, And silence evermore. He comes along your vessel, O bid Him take the helm! Then worry with its flurry. His pow'r shall overwhelm. Gird up, with cords of promise, The loins of the mind; Recount the lavish blessings Along life's path you find; In holy concentration, With grateful heart aglow, This ancient foe called Worry, No longer shall you know!
