Compliant
Compliant to God, never defiant
Persistent in doing His will by grace
Jubilant, amidst trials, triumphant.
Yielded to the Lord in running life’s race
I’m upheld by His love’s magnificence
For joyous service along might’s brace.
Dependent on His light’s iridescence
Taught am I through the precepts of Scriptures
Delighting in His marvelous presence.
Surrendered to Christ for steward gestures
Blessed with His provision-sufficiency
I’m nourished while He ceaselessly nurtures.
Gripped with the Saviour’s faithfulness-mercy
Propelled by earnest humble gratitude
I worship Him in His excellency.
Toward divine strengthened faith-altitude
I abide* in my Master’s fortitude.
*1Corinthians 7:24 Brethren, let every man, wherein he is called, therein abide with God.
