Abounding Goodness of God
God’s goodness verily abounding
Prevailed with thankful praise-resounding.
Blessings* encompassed my last year’s nest
Overtaking woes by blissful zest.
Increased trust toward faith altitude
Propelled earnest service fortitude.
Works of sacrificial endeavour
Wafted heavenly as sweet savour.
Afflictions midst challenging trials
Maximized divine love’s portrayals.
Our special child’s milestones … triumphant
Great grants from last year, indeed vibrant.
*Ephesians 1:3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ.
