BEACON OF TRUTH

I’ve walked down the halls of religion
Grew up in the shadows of traditions of men
Thinking I was one of the upright
Believing I was truly abiding in Him
Then Your Truth came alive in Your Word and Your witness
Your Spirit pierced through with the Light of Your love
Showing the way—I must trust in Your grace
Flooding my life with Your love

You’re my Beacon of Truth in a sea of deceptions
A light to my way past the doctrines of men
A Bright Ray of Hope freed from temporal delusion
You’re my Savior and Lord, My God and my Friend

I’ve read through the Bible’s pages
Only to back up the opinions of men
But then Your Holy Spirit led me
To go and search through the scriptures again
Then Your Word came alive through Your life giving Spirit
The darkness fell off like scales from my eyes
Showing anew, the Word from God’s point of view
Opening my eyes to see

You’re my Beacon of Truth in a sea of deceptions
A light to my way past the doctrines of men
A Bright Ray of Hope freed from temporal delusion
You’re my Savior and Lord, My God and my Friend

Jesus, Light of my salvation
Jesus, Way and Truth and Life
Jesus, Lord of all creation
Jesus, I lift Your Name on high

You’re my Beacon of Truth in a sea of deceptions
A light to my way past the doctrines of men
A Bright Ray of Hope freed from temporal delusion
You’re my Savior and Lord, My God and my Friend

When God Comes In Revival By Charles G. Finney



A revival breaks the power of the world and of sin over Christians. It brings them to such vantage ground that they get a fresh impulse toward heaven. They have a new foretaste of heaven and new desires after union with God; and the charm of the world is broken, and the power of sin overcome.
When the churches are thus awakened and reformed, the reformation and salvation of sinners will follow, going through the same stages of conviction, repentance, and reformation. Their hearts will be broken down and changed. Very often the most abandoned profligates are among the subjects. Harlots and drunkards and infidels and all sorts of abandoned characters are awakened and converted. The worst among human beings are softened, and reclaimed, and made to appear as lovely specimens of the beauty of holiness.
"O Lord, revive thy work in the midst of the years, in the midst of the years make known, in wrath remember mercy" ( Hab. 3:2).
