God's Righteousness Is Righteous Forever - Psalm 119: 137-144

In this world so much unrighteousness
is seen always before our very eyes
but we can know God is righteous
always and altogether one who never lies

All of God's words soaked in righteousness
knowing His faithfulness is forever true
zealous are your servants being consumed
my foes don't heed God's word having any clue

God's promise is sure and faithful
all your people love them every one
this proves indeed who are your people
they confess to God 'your will be done'

The anxiety of life is a real test
proving whether truth is in your law
but indeed your words are my delight
so nourishing they are not like straw

God's righteousness is righteous forever
His tr4stimonies prove this for real
I look for understanding so to live
confessing that my God's the real deal!

(This is my " Psalm 119 project" which I began to write a couple of years ago, so this is the eighteenth poem of twenty-two poems I've written over that time to cover all of Psalm 119.)
