Blessings of persecution Archives - A Doctor's Cure for the Soul

Downcast and Discouraged?

Know God, comforts the downcast,
And gives grace, for each need,
Our hope, ever in the LORD,
He never fails us, always succeeds!

With unending persecution;
Nigerian leaders do not care;
May we commit, to ceaseless praying;
To see our God, deliver there.

You are my hiding place
And also my shield
I hope in Your Word
There Your love, revealed.

So, despite such depravity
The height of men’s evil
You will comfort, and care
LORD God, Your own people.

So, remember they’re family
Forget not, stay prayerful
Your brothers and sisters
In Christ… do be faithful.

For persecution’s rewarded
Such an honor to bear
To walk the way, of His cross
In His sufferings, His life share.

Remember our brethren
In starvation and need
Persecuted, forgotten
Daily, do intercede.

Yes LORD, midst oppression
May Your people shine bright
That multitudes of Afghani’s
Turn from darkness, to light.

His bloodshed, our new birth
By God’s Spirit, divine
From death, now resurrection
LORD, all the glory is Thine!

So be ready, prepare
For our freedom is fading
Our faith is attacked
Great wickedness, invading.
