Faithfulness of the Lord

Faithfulness* of the Lord along His compassion Assures me His comfort and presence Imparts to my heart His goodness Triumphantly keeps me in His care Helps me graciously midst trials Forgives my confessed iniquities Upon His pardoning blood’s power... Leading me to His love’s light Nurturing my spirit by His Word’s nourishment Earnestly upholding me against hardships Shaping me toward Christ-likeness Strengthening my faith to please Him, my God. *Psalm 89:5 And the heavens shall praise thy wonders, O LORD: thy faithfulness also in the congregation of the saints.
