A Wonderful Savior

June 12, 2020 (Friday)

Jesus is our wonderful Savior. He protects us, hiding our souls from danger. He gives us joy by letting us experience genuine godly pleasure. In the midst of unpleasant circumstances He keeps us safe, covering us with His mighty hand. He keeps us steady and gives us strength to stand strong against spiritual enemies. Every moment of our lives is filled with too many blessings to count. We are caught up in ecstatic joy and sing, “Oh, glory to God!”

A day is coming when the dead shall be raised and we all shall rise to meet the Lord, filled with His fulness, thanking Him for His perfect salvation and wonderful love. Inhabiting new, glorious bodies, clothed in His brightness, we shall join millions in praising Him forever.

We are blessed beyond belief by the King of Kings and Lord of Lords. At any given moment in our lives, we may be beset by tribulations and trials, but the Lord is always with us and we are always with Him, trusting Him and depending upon His grace, love and power to see us through.

“Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice!” (Philippians 4:4 NIV).

He Hideth My Soul
Words: Frances J. Crosby

1890

A wonderful Savior is Jesus my Lord,
A wonderful Savior to me;
He hideth my soul in the cleft of the rock,
Where rivers of pleasure I see.

Chorus:
He hideth my soul in the cleft of the rock,
That shadows a dry, thirsty land;
He hideth my life in the depths of His love,
And covers me there with His hand,
And covers me there with His hand.

A wonderful Savior is Jesus my Lord,
He taketh my burden away,
He holdeth me up and I shall not be moved,
He giveth me strength as my day.
Chorus

With numberless blessings each moment He crowns,
And filled with His fullness divine,
I sing in my rapture, oh, glory to God!
For such a Redeemer as mine.
Chorus

When clothed with His brightness transported I rise
To meet Him in clouds of the sky,
His perfect salvation, His wonderful love,
I’ll shout with the millions on high.
Chorus
