Strong Faith Like Daniel

 

 

May God give us Strong Faith like Daniel,
A faith tested, tried, and true,
And help us stand in times of danger…
Whatever others may do.
Should a law be passed that breaks God’s law,
May we obey Him, not man,
And always be willing to give all…
For His purposes and plan.

Daniel stood firm, and refused to bend,
Though the king passed a decree,
He continued to pray without end –
Openly, where all could see.
As He was thrown in the lions’ den,
God’s angel kept him from harm;
Because Daniel had refused to sin…
He was shielded by God’s arm.

As he stood firm upon the Word
And believed in His great God,
The king saw, and came to know the Lord –
The true and the Living God.
Oh, God, give us Strong Faith like Daniel,
Faith to believe and obey,
Even in the face of great danger…
That others would know Your way.

 

“Daniel was taken up out of the den, and no manner of hurt was found upon him,
because he believed in his God.”
king Darius wrote: “I make a decree, that in every dominion of my kingdom men tremble
and fear before the God of Daniel; for he is the living God”
(Dan 6:23, 26)
