Be Strong in the Lord

Be strong in the Lord, and be of good courage;
Your mighty Defender is always the same.
Mount up with wings, as the eagle ascending;
Victory is sure when you call on His name.

So put on the armour the Lord has provided;
And place your defense in His unfailing care.
Trust Him for He will be with you in battle,
Lighting your path to avoid every snare.

Be strong in the Lord,and be of good courage;
Your mighty Commander will vanquish the foe.
Fear not the battle, for the victory is always His;
He will protect you where ever you go.

Be strong, be strong, be strong in the Lord;
And be of good courage, for Hi is your guide.
Be strong, be strong be strong in the Lord;
And rejoice, for the victory is yours.
by Linda Lee Johnson 1947-


Lord, we stay strong in you for the battle is yours to win. Give Sarah the strength that you see that she needs on this day. Keep her voice strong, her words clear and her message from the heart. Lord, thank you for her and her family. Bless each one on this Lord's day. Give them time to be with you and with each other. Give them the courage that they need and Lord, we will thank you for what ever happens on Tuesday. Thank you for being our guide through this election. I am glad that we can lean on you and trust in your unfailing love.
I pray in the name of Jesus
Amen
