Who Speaks for You?

Who Speaks for You?

When trouble comes and shadows fall,
When chains of fear would bind us all,
There is a voice both strong and true,
A loving Savior speaks for you.

When prisons close and hope grows dim,
Lift up your eyes and look to Him;
The God who saved, who brought you through,
Still stands in power and speaks for you.

He split the sea, He made a way,
He turns the darkest night to day;
His mercy fresh as morning dew,
Forever rises, speaks for you.

His Sabbath stands, a sacred sign,
A gift of love, a truth divine;
A beacon shining bright in view,
Reminding us He speaks for you.

The spies once saw the giants tall,
And fear convinced them they would fall;
Yet Caleb trusted that God was true,
For heaven's King would speak for you.

Who shapes your path, your loss, your gain?
Whose voice will guide through joy and pain?
Not doubt, nor fear, nor man's review—
Let Christ alone speak for you.

The One who left His throne above,
To show the world redeeming love;
Who died, arose, and made all new,
Is now in heaven speaking for you.

Our High Priest pleads before the throne,
We never walk this life alone;
His grace is strong, His word is true,
And day by day He speaks for you.

So trust the Lord through storm and strife,
Surrender all your heart and life;
For when this earthly journey's through,
You'll hear Him say, “I spoke for you.” ?????
