While reading in the Psalms, I came to chapter 60:11,12, "Oh, grant us help against the foe, for vain is the salvation of man! With God we shall do valiantly; it is He Who will tread down our foes." And the following short poem came to mind.
Foes within and foes without,
Our God has triumphed with a shout!
Though we are weak and Oh so fragile--
Christ is our Head that makes us agile;
To fight the well fought fight with joy
And render unto Him the glory.
Oh, be exalted, O our God--
Above the heavens where You trod.
You walk upon the wings of wind
And there Your glory has no end!
Among the nations we'll sing Your praises,
As victors of the dead Christ raises.
