The Gift of Contentment
This new year I have one wish
to give to you a superb gift
one that takes away your blues
for it'll heal any kind of rift
A deep filled heart of contentment
that's what this is to be true
nothing will move it absolutely no
it brings a peace which is brand new
Many assaults and troubles hit us
but in the midst of them all
a contented heart holds us still
making us stand true and tall
The giver of this gift is God alone
assuring His peace and presence within
nothing will move us ever at all
for in the end we ultimately win
We need just to believe and trust
in God's word divinely revealed
this contentment will fill our hearts
nothing moves what God has sealed
