Behold, God is My Salvation

Behold, God is my salvation;
I will trust, and not be afraid;
For the Lord Jehovah is my strength and my song:
He also is become my salvation.

And in that day shall ye say,
Praise the Lord,
Call upon His name
Declare His doings among the people.

Make mention that His name is exalted.
Sing unto the Lord;
For He hath done excellent things:
This is known in all the earth

Cry out, and shout,
Thou inhabitant of Zion;
For great is the Holy One of Israel;
The Lord our God!

Words from Isaiah 12

16 The day is thine, the night also is thine: thou hast prepared the light and the sun.
18 Remember this, that the enemy hath reproached, O Lord, and that the foolish people have blasphemed thy name.
21 O let not the oppressed return ashamed: let the poor and needy praise thy name.
5:11 . . . let all those that put their trust in thee rejoice: let them ever shout for joy, because thou defendest them: let them also that love thy name be joyful in thee.
Rom. 16:17 Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them which cause divisions and offences contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned; and avoid them.
