The Rock of my salvation.

That is a powerful and foundational truth, echoing the song of Moses in Deuteronomy 32 and the psalms of David. Here is a poem celebrating that eternal Rock.

The Rock of My Salvation

The Lord is the rock of my salvation. Not sand,that shifts with the tide of opinion, Not clay,that cracks in the heat of trial, ButRock—unmoved, eternal, strong through every mile.

“The Lord is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer; my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge.” —Psalm 18:2

When the rains of regret fall heavy and deep, And the floods of failure around me sweep, My house is not shaken,my foundation holds fast, For my life is built on a Rock that will last.

“He is the Rock, his works are perfect, and all his ways are just. A faithful God who does no wrong, upright and just is he.” —Deuteronomy 32:4

He is the rock from which living waters flow, The surest source when my soul is low. He is the shade in a weary land, The constant truth on which I stand.

He is the rock of my salvation's story, The foundation of my hope and glory. From Him was hewn this altar of grace, My hiding place,my resting place.

“Trust in the Lord forever, for the Lord, the Lord himself, is the Rock eternal.” —Isaiah 26:4

So let the winds of change howl and roar, Let the waves of chaos beat on the shore. My feet are secure,my soul anchored still, On the Rock of His promise,His sovereign will.

My salvation is sure, for it was never my own, But carved from His heart,on His cross, it was shown. I will sing of the Mountain that crushes all fear, The Lord is the Rock of my salvation—He is here.

Amen.
