If a child of God remains in His will,
Though harm, even human death, on him falls,
He has naught to fear, for God’s with him still—
Life and safety in heaven quickly calls!
What is death, but the door to Paradise?
One with greater things for God left to do
Has divine protection, safe and precise—
No wound can prevent success to ensue!
From the moment of belief, such is true:
To die is gain, but Christ wants him to live*,
For producing fruit, ‘til earth-life is thrpugh;
Winning lost souls; new life to many give!
Believers have refuge in Christ the Lord;
Instant protection is their first reward!
*John 17:15
Promise Made: Psalm 46:1,7—“God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble. … The Lord Almighty is with us; the God of Jacob is our fortress.” (NIV)
“For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have everlasting life.” (John 3:16)
“That if you confess with your mouth, ‘Jesus is Lord’, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.” (Romans 10:9)
