We cannot fight you

It is useless for you to fight against my will (Acts 26:14; NLT).

1. We cannot fight you, Lord,
You’re Light,
Shining on us
Day and night.

2. We cannot fight you, Lord,
You’re Peace;
Your government
Will never cease.

3. We cannot fight you, Lord,
You’re Fire;
You send your Spirit
To inspire.

4. We cannot fight you, Lord,
You’re Truth,
Expressed in Jesus
From his youth.

5. We cannot fight you Lord,
You’re Love:
Your Kingdom come;
Your will be done.

  • The beginning of wisdom is found in your words Ruth. The knowledge of how Almighty our Father God is should encourage us to seek Him rather than trying to hide from Him. Knowing that He can do all things should tell us not to even try hiding. O what an awesome Father God we are blessed by!

    • We are indeed blessed, no matter what trials we face, Alan, though I have been known to hide from him under my duvet when his words are utterly overwhelming! XXXXXX
