Stand By Them In Faith

When God puts His hand on a man
and calls him forth to preach
He’s given him an awesome task
of hurting souls to reach
____
and all life’s problems come to church
through many hurting souls
who are looking for some answers
who’ll lead them to their goals
____
this shepherd has a lonely task
with problems all his own
he’s careful that he seeks God’s will
sometimes he feels alone
____
with great responsibilities
a load too much to bear
his fellow servants need to know
this leader needs their prayers
____
for Satan will attack this man
destruction is his aim
in splitting apart his family
and what his ministry gained
____
so if the devil can succeed
in ruining chosen men
the body suffers from discord
and chaos reigns again
____
lift up these mighty men of God
and pray that they be safe
secure from Satan’s wretched plan
and stand by them in faith
