A Strong Tower

I wrote this song ten years ago,
and thought it fitting to share again today.
May our country find new strength,
unity, courage, mercy and grace; truly
sow the fruits of the Spirit
as we move forward from
this milestone in our history.

A STRONG TOWER
By Connie Wisman 9/01

THE NAME OF THE LORD IS A STRONG TOWER,
AND FOREVER IT WILL STAND.
IT IS THE LORD’S PURPOSE THAT PREVAILS
AND NOT THE PLANS OF MAN.

MY EYES SAW MANMADE TOWERS FALL.
MY HEART FELT UNTOLD NUMBERS CALL-
UPON THE NAME OF JESUS.

MY EARS HEARD HERO STORIES
OF PEOPLE WALKING OUT THEIR FAITH;
LAST MINUTE CALLS TO LOVED ONES
BEFORE THEY SAW THE PEARLY GATES.

I SAW SERVANT FEET OF STRANGERS
WITH YOUR MERCY IN THEIR EYES.
I SMELLED THE PRAYERFUL INCENSE
AS IT LIFTED TO THE SKIES.

I PRAY THE UNBELIEVERS
WILL NO LONGER WANT TO BE APART-
THAT THE COLD AND LUKEWARM CHRISTIAN
WILL LET THE FIRE COME TO HIS HEART.

THE NAME OF THE LORD IS A STRONG TOWER
AND FOREVER WILL IT STAND.
IT IS THE LORD’S PURPOSE THAT PREVAILS,
AND NOT THE PLANS OF MAN

MY EYES SAW MANMADE TOWERS FALL-
MY HEART FELT UNTOLD NUMBERS CALL
UPON THE NAME OF JESUS.
CALLING-
JESUS, I LOVE YOU………..JESUS, I NEED YOU…….
JESUS, I’M COMING………..JESUS………I SEE YOU
