Gordon Mcconnell Poet Rhyme

God's Covenant Promise -Isaiah 54: 10

Look up to the mountains around us
see also the hills throughout the land
consider if these be completely removed
would anything be left that could stand?

But despite this God has steadfast love
a love that will never depart
this is a promise He will always keep
especially against Satan's fiery darts

This God is not only full of eternal love
but also brings His covenant of peace
which will not ever be at all removed
what knowledge to know it'll not cease

Indeed this is a God of compassion
who shows what's really in His heart
for a covenant promise-keeping God
is faithful always in no small part

('For the mountains may depart
   and the hills be removed,
but my steadfast love shall not depart from you,
   and my covenant of peace shall not be removed,”
   says the Lord, who has compassion on you.')
Isaiah 54: 10 (ESV)
