Guard the Trust

preach the word; be ready in season and out of season; reprove, rebuke, and exhort, with complete patience and teaching.
2 Timothy 4:2

Guard the Trust
lyrics by Steve Camp

O my dear Timothy, hold on to the faith
Keep your conscience pure and holy
Fight the good fight every day
Don't give in to myths and fables
train yourself for godliness

You've got to... be an example in your youth
You've got to... be faithful to the truth
You've got to... watch your life and doctrine closely
It'll save you and those who hear it too

Guard the trust
You've got to guard the trust
Hold on to the faithful word
this you must
You got to guard the trust
Guard the trust
Through the Spirit Who dwells in you
Guard the trust

O my son Timothy, I charge you in the sight of God
Preach the word when its convenient
Preach the word when it is not
There will come a time when trust is compromised
They'll be teaching for itching ears

But you... be sober in all things
But you... endure hardship for the King
But you... do the work of an evangelist
That is my dying wish

Guard the trust
You've got to guard the trust
Hold on to the faithful word
this you must
You got to guard the trust
Guard the trust
Through the Spirit Who dwells in you
Guard the trust
