Confidence In the Presence of God

God’s presence* in my life daily is my utmost desire Such is axiomatic every time I wake up ‘til I retire... His peace is what I want to reign over me surely To conquer my fears triumphantly. In His compassion is where I find freedom indeed As I fellowship with Him, unmindful of time to exceed… I thank His joy embracing me upon His certainty Dispelling my thoughts of anguish and anxiety… Thus, His guidance keeps me settled Leading me to be altruistic where I’m lovingly handled... His grace hedges me around His embrace Away from Him, my asseveration won’t have value-trace… Truly, victory awaits me thru His power To bear service-fruits as His diligent sower! *Psalm 116:14 I will pay my vows unto the LORD now in the presence of all his people.
