Listen from:
SA 121:7{Do you believe that? But He who knows our little faith never gives an isolated promise. He leaves us no chance of overlooking or misunderstanding anyone except by willful neglect because it is always confirmed in other parts of the Word. So He has given the same strong consolation in other terms. "There shall no evil happen to the just." "In seven [troubles] there shall no evil touch thee." He is the "wall of fire round about" us; and what fortification so impenetrable—nay, so unapproachable! And "He that toucheth you toucheth the apple of His eye"—the very least touch is felt by the Lord, who loves us and is mighty to save! Well may He say, "And who is he that will harm you?”
Thy power, Thy love, Thy faithfulness,
With lip and life I long to bless.
Thy faithfulness shall be my tower,
My sun Thy love, my shield Thy power,
In darkest night,
In fiercest fight.
With lip and life I long to bless
Thy power, Thy love, Thy faithfulness.
