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
