A pledge is now screening
All those on the path
For there's movement out there
Could tear you apart

A strength shrouds it's depths
You are covered in all
Stay safe where you know
So you will not fall

There's only one power
Can hold you upon
The journey of life
To guide you along

The howling's without
There's more you can't hear
But, tread firm every day
For the Father is near

He holds the weapons
The warring is His
There is nothing to fear-
You are with Him

At the close of life's day
You will see The Great Light
Then of a truth you will know
How great was the fight

“But He knows the way that I take; when He has tested me
I will come forth as gold.
My feet have closely followed His steps;
I have kept to His way without turning aside.”
Job 23:10-11
