Honor

What is honor? Is it lordship? Is is gained by ruling lands? Is it for the wise and rich For kings, with scepters in their hands? What is honor? Is it glory? Is it fame and majesty? Does it mean that you are lauded Lifted high for all to see? What is honor? Is it greatness? Is it found in bravery? Is it found in feats of heroes Those who fight or save or free? What is honor? Is it goodness? Is it great integrity? Is it fighting sin’s enticement? Is it found in purity? What is honor? You will fail To gain true honor on your own True honor comes from Yehovah While humbly kneeling ‘fore His throne What is honor?–being chosen By the One Who raised the dead To have His might, and fight His wars He honors me and lifts my head
