Psalm 119: 97-104 Mem -מ

O how I love Your law
My meditation, all the day
Through Your commandments
I’m made wiser, in every way.

Forever, O LORD
Your Word, is settled in heaven
Your faithfulness endures
To all generations, in succession.

Almost consuming, me on earth
But I forsook not, Your precepts
Sustain my life, and restore
By Your loving kindness, take steps.

Let my heart be blameless
Regarding Your statutes
That I may not be ashamed
Live a life with sound roots.

You’ve dealt well, with Your servant
LORD, in accord with Your Word
Teach me good judgment
And knowledge, conferred.

So, teach me Your statutes
Your ordinances, to obey
Your decrees and Your laws
May I hearken, and not stray.

So, we celebrate Christmas
But are missing the Messiah
No manger no mention
Of our need, to look higher.

This mystery unfolded
God reached out as man
As the Lord of Creation
As Messiah, His plan.

So, daily cleave to God’s Word
And set your mind above
Keep proclaiming, God’s promises
Denounce the devil, declare God’s love.

So, friend if you’re yearning
God’s blessing and change
Come wrestle with God
‘til your old life’s exchanged.
