Lord, be exalted & praised Archives - A Doctor's Cure for the Soul

Our Father in Heaven

Jesus taught us to pray
To our Father in heaven
For His kingdom and will
And not living, for leaven.

Why do You stand
Afar off, O LORD?
Why do You hide
Amidst troubles, outpoured?

Stay thankful, midst trials
See the sufferings, we face
When trusting in Jesus
Become blessings, by grace.

Don’t harden your heart
Staying stubborn, defiant
With grievances, grudges
Hard-headed, self-reliant.

We’re all called, to the unreached
Ask God, direct each day
Through praying, sharing, giving
See more disciples, that obey.

So instead, of self-approval
Or seek approval, of others
Know, we’re created for God
For His approval, not another.

The fool says in his heart
There is no God
Who declares them corrupt
Abominable… none does good?

Though we know not the day
Nor hour He will come
God’s Word never fails
We shall soon, see His Son.

The fear of the LORD
Is the beginning of wisdom
But fools, despise God
His rule, and His kingdom.

And put on the new man
Created according to God
In true righteousness and holiness
In His fullness, now daily trod.
