Rescue
The Lord is our rescue.
And all else will fail.
The Lord himself will rescue his lost sheep.
He cares for each one of us and he will rescue us.
Even when we choose our downfalls, he offers us his hand.
He seeks us out from all the places we have strayed.
He wants to bring us into his land, a place to be our own.
He will satisfy us with all that is good.
He will provide for us and give us rest.
The Lord is our rescue, sustainer, provider and home.
Ezekiel 34:4-6 and 11:16
4 The weak you have not strengthened, the sick you have not healed, the injured you have not bound up, the strayed you have not brought back, the lost you have not sought, and with force and harshness you have ruled them. 5 So they were scattered, because there was no shepherd, and they became food for all the wild beasts. My sheep were scattered; 6 they wandered over all the mountains and on every high hill. My sheep were scattered over all the face of the earth, with none to search or seek for them.

11 “For thus says the Lord God: Behold, I, I myself will search for my sheep and will seek them out. 12 As a shepherd seeks out his flock when he is among his sheep that have been scattered, so will I seek out my sheep, and I will rescue them from all places where they have been scattered on a day of clouds and thick darkness. 13 And I will bring them out from the peoples and gather them from the countries, and will bring them into their own land. And I will feed them on the mountains of Israel, by the ravines, and in all the inhabited places of the country. 14 I will feed them with good pasture, and on the mountain heights of Israel shall be their grazing land. There they shall lie down in good grazing land, and on rich pasture they shall feed on the mountains of Israel. 15 I myself will be the shepherd of my sheep, and I myself will make them lie down, declares the Lord God. 16 I will seek the lost, and I will bring back the strayed, and I will bind up the injured, and I will strengthen the weak, and the fat and the strong I will destroy. I will feed them in justice.

Lauren Daigle sings “I will rescue you”. “I jear you whisper underneath your breath, I hear you whisper you have nothing left. I will Rescue you.”
