Dedication To the Lord

Dedication to the Lord
Through the glory of His works
That the verses might  come to be
To dwell within ones soul
Giving a newfound love and inexpressible joy
The work has been done
We just need more to see 
This world is rejecting Christ
But when one gets tired of it
Call out unto His name
For guidance, wisdom, knowledge
And the light within to reveal
The darkness and deception around us
For He said my people die from lack of knowledge.
This is seen more clearly 
And that people love darkness
Instead of light, for most do
Not comprehend they are really
In darkness seperated from God.





I called on your name, Lord, from the depths of the pit. You heard my plea: “Do not close your ears to my cry for relief.” You came near when I called you, and you said, “Do not fear.” You, Lord, took up my case; you redeemed my life.
Lamentations 3:55?-?58 NIV


who redeems your life from the pit and crowns you with love and compassion, who satisfies your desires with good things so that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s.
Psalms 103:4?-?5 NIV


but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.
Isaiah 40:31 NIV



Though you have not seen him, you love him; and even though you do not see him now, you believe in him and are filled with an inexpressible and glorious joy,
1 Peter 1:8 NIV


Therefore, as God’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience.
Colossians 3:12 NIV
