At times we feel as if the world and its troubles are about to sweep us off our feet.  Before we begin to fear the floods of life are about over our head we are wise to head to Jesus, the Rock higher than our circumstances.

I Run to the Rock

Open up our eyes Lord to see,
When the truth is blocked by our enemy.
Allow our hearts to be free,
From lies and deceit.
We seek Your divine protection,
Guard our life from deception.
When the world magnifies lies dressed in truth’s garb,
Help us detect it and come against the deception hard.
Help our minds to absorb what the Word says is right,
And push every other thing away and out of sight.
When opportunity arises give us the words to say;
That testifies truth to others to show and lead the way.
In the world’s confusion and its shaky ground,
I will run to the rock and rest on truth sound.
In the winds and rain that threatens to flood my land,
I depend on Jesus’ helping hand.
I will walk with Him on murky waters if need be;
Because on Him I depend and He is strong in me.

Psalms 61:2
From the end of the earth will I cry unto thee, when my heart is overwhelmed:
lead me to the rock that is higher than I.
