To Long Life

To long life I cleave To sound health I hold Its been a short long journey So far Looking down the years Of *unrival-able* favour From the unrivalled God In my trepidation down the years The devil had landed Punches... Alas I have a strength And shield who knocks The knock-out blow The graciousness of God Down the years Words alone can't express When the chicken-poxes of darkness struck Dotting my body Top to bottom Like the dotted lines The Rapha *raphad* Himself in my life Returning me to a new baby Its a high level Of despicability That we ignorantly Ignore the graciousness Of God My voyage down the years Both in calm and tempestuous Seas...God has proved himself To be the ruler of the universe All the days of my existence Your name shall be on my lips Despite every gridlock That the devil will attempt to place On my way... Cause I have the all sufficient one Backing me up I know the battle is won... Not by power Nor by might Have I overcome all But by the grace of God For that I say And will always say Hallowed be thy name.
