Standing Fast - Re-Posted

I felt the day close in on me

Crushing me with its weight
Until I realized this fact –
The Lord, my God, is great.
 
The world can’t crush me with its weight,
For He will lift me high.
Upon the rock, He holds me safe.
My Lord is ever nigh.
 
So I’ll stand fast upon the rock
And make my home in Him.
Trouble will have no hold on me,
However bleak or grim.
 
Psalm 27:5
For in the day of trouble he will keep me safe in his dwelling; he will hide me in the shelter of his sacred tent and set me high upon a rock.
