My Strength, My Song and My Salvation -Exodus 15: 2
God is one of perfect poetic skill supreme
sending forth an ability to capture hearts
throughout scripture, this evidence is so clear
bringing so much pleasure from many parts
Throughout scripture God brings strength
in many situations the weak become strong
when we look upwards in simple faith
trusting in the saviour where we belong
David was the musician with the harp
but so often God's people played His tune
we would sing in unison for our victory
strong in prayer and praise all before noon
God is the saviour of my soul
He alone brought me my salvation
His son paid to atone all my sin
gifting to me my blessed justification
All of this shows who is my God
my praise must always upwards rise
to my father, I indeed shall exalt Him
for He's given freely my eternal prize
('The Lord is my strength and my song,
and he has become my salvation;
this is my God, and I will praise him,
my father's God, and I will exalt him.')
Exodus 15: 2 (ESV)
