Expanding - Longing For Impact -Psalm 72, 67
We all have ambition a real driving force
but is ambition really worth it all
after all, life has only a few short years
once need a stick before being down to crawl
The psalmist tells of the King of Israel
with justice and righteousness, he did reign
this godly reign was of lasting blessing
it was like the land being showered with rain
Israel's King reigns over the nations
so many ignorant of God's gospel
why will they bow before this king?
he shall deliver the needy from their shell
The hearts of the nations will he win
for the quality of his mercy will effect
to draw them into his blessed fold
indeed God's purpose to lovingly select
God brings joy around all the nations
for it, He will be known around the globe
His praise increase for overflowing blessing
long for God, kingdom ambitions in your probe
(PSALM 72 & 67)
