Where Could I Go?

Psalm 121:2 My help cometh from the Lord, which made heaven and earth.

The real source of our help is Almighty God. He isn’t just a friend or an ally, but the Creator of the universe. 

Think about it. If God can make this world, then surely, He has the power to take care of His people. 

What a truth! Our helper is none other than the very One who stood on the edge of nothing and made everything with the Word of His power. 

He is able to help you and me - Eph. 3:20.  Isa. 40:12.

Isaiah 40:12 Who hath measured the waters in the hollow of his hand, and meted out heaven with the span, and comprehended the dust of the earth in a measure, and weighed the mountains in scales, and the hills in a balance?

Where could I go but to the Lord?

‘Living below in this old sinful world,  —  Hardly a comfort can afford.  —  Striving alone to face temptations sore.  —  Where could I go but to the Lord?

Chorus
“Where could I go? O Where could I go?  —  Seeking a refuge for my soul.  —  Needing a friend to help me in the end.  —  Where could I go but to the Lord?

“Neighbors are kind, I love them everyone,  —  We get along in sweet accord.  —  But when my soul needs mannna from above,  —  Where could I go but to the Lord?

“Life here is grand with friends I love so dear,  —  Comfort I get from God's own word  —  Yet when I face the chilling hand of death,  —  Where could I go but to the Lord?”
