Do I Have True Happiness
Do I Have True Happiness?
With everything I done and all that I’ve got..
What kind of happiness has it brought?
With everything I can reach out and obtain.
Has it given me joy or brought me shame?
With everything that this world can give me.
What kind of life “lies beneath me?”
With everything I own. My possessions and wealth…
Do I have contentment and “spiritual” wealth?
I want it to be known and wish to express…
I’m not so sure I’m what you would call “blessed.”
There’s something I know to be most certain.
Tomorrow could be life’s “final curtain.”
There’s one thing that’s been on my mind.
Have I given God just some of “my” time?
There’s one thing I’m going to do, and do it now.
I’m going to come to the Lord and humbly bow.
There’s something that I really need to do...
Give it all to God! And tell him;
“I LOVE YOU!”
There’s something I should have done already.
When Christ comes again… I want to be ready!
God’s joy and happiness is true and very real!
The presence of God.., I can already feel!
What God has given to me, no one can take away!
For he comforts me and is with me every day!
