A Psalm of Praise To God

Oh Lord my God. I love you with an everlasting love.
Each of your ways is perfect and in you there is no
shadow of turning. I love you for first loving me and
sending Jesus to die for my sins. My heart is melted by
your goodness toward me. If I sin and ask forgiveness, you
give inner assurance that you've heard. You make my path
straight and it is well with my soul. How strong are
your arms that uphold me from evil and malicious people.
You've placed me upon a pedestal. I endure their evil
intent and continue to go forward from victory unto victory.
Every blessing I have is from you. My wife and family are
like a laurel wreath placed by you upon my head. All that I
have comes from you. How excellent is your name forever
on earth as it is in heaven.
