The Bible: There it stands
      

Century follows century - There it stands.

Empires rise and fall and are forgotten - There it stands.

Dynasty succeeds dynasty - There it stands.

Kings are crowned and uncrowned - There it stands.

Despised and torn to pieces - There it stands.

Storms of hate swirl about it - There it stands.

Atheists rail against it - There it stands.

Agnostics smile cynically - There it stands.

Profane prayerless punsters caricature it - There it stands.

Unbelief abandons it - There it stands.

Higher critics deny its claim to inspiration - there it stands.

Thunderbolts of wrath smite - There it stands.

An anvil that has broken a million hammers - there it stands.

The flames are kindled about it - There it stands.

The arrows of hate are discharged against it - There it stands.

Radicalism rants and raves against it - There it stands.

Fogs of sophistry conceal it temporarily - There it stands.

The tooth of time gnaws but makes no dent in it - There it stands.

Infidels predict its abandonment - There it stands.

Modernism tries to explain it away - There it stands.

Excellent, Laura. Thank you!

You made me think of a song, Laura:

Quote:The Bible stands like a rock undaunted
'Mid the raging storms of time;
Its pages burn with the truth eternal,
And they glow with a light sublime.

2. The Bible stands like a mountain towering
Far above the works of men;
Its truth by none ever was refuted,
And destroy it they never can.

3. The Bible stands and it will forever,
When the world has passed away;
By inspiration it has been given,
All its precepts I will obey.

4. The Bible stands every test we give it,
For its Author is divine;
By grace alone I expect to live it,
And to prove and to make it mine.

Chorus:
The Bible stands though the hills may tumble,
It will firmly stand when the earth shall crumble;
I will plant my feet on its firm foundation,
For the Bible stands.
