Birthday Thanksgiving
Bestowed with birthday-benefits* by God Almighty
I offer my gratefulness to Him for His blessings' bounty:
Redemption around His grand providence-security
Triumphant journey toward eternity
Hope of gracious certainty
Days cheered up by His presence-authority
Assurance within His Word's verity
Youthfulness' glow thru His power-tenacity!
Thanksgiving indeed abounding joyously
Hoists my stewardship-pursuits zealously
Anchored by the Holy Spirit constantly
Nourishing and nurturing my soul richly
Kindling my service earnestly
Satisfying me thru His goodness serenely...
Granted with life everlasting's sufficiency
I persevere in pleasing the Lord with faith's fervency
Vowing to honour Him along His preeminence-excellency
Illumined against self-glorification's ephemeral ecstasy;
Now and forever, I express my gratitude devoid of hypocrisy
Giving thanks to loved ones** while praising His mercy.
*Psalm 68:19 Blessed be the Lord, who daily loadeth us with benefits, even the God of our salvation.
**Thank you so much for your love-filled greetings, prayer, and gifts during my birthday.
