Be patient waiting on God Archives - Page 4 of 12

Poor in Spirit?

Are so weary of self
All the efforts you make
Self-reliance, self-ambitions
All fleshly, vain mistakes.

Yes, those bugs and frustrations
God allows, each our way
Are to get our attention
Cause us turn, and obey.

With my heart, ever hungry
Am so thirsty Lord, for You
So desiring, Your Presence
Your Word, is ever true.

Let my cry come
Before You, O LORD
Give me understanding
According to Your Word.

For I rejoice at Your word
As one finding, great treasure.
I hate, and abhor lying
But love Your law, my greatest pleasure.

LORD, look and consider
My affliction, and deliver me
For I do not forget
Your law, set me free.

All Your commands are true
Concerning Your testimonies
I have known, of old
You have founded them, forever.

Trouble and anguish, found me
Yet Your commands, are my delight
Everlasting, Your righteous testimonies
Bring understanding, and revive.

Your testimonies are wonderful
Therefore, my soul keeps them
The opening of Your Word
Giving light to all, amen!

Therefore, I esteem
All Your precepts, I praise
And consider as right
While I hate, all false ways.
