Blest to be ministered to by God, I’ve uttered: “Thank You, Lord; make my life around You be centered Though trial-blistered and faith in You had faltered I still heard You cheering me; such indeed mattered.” Grace-watered with Christ’s wondrous kindness encountered I whispered sincere prayer of trust, hope-glittered Confessing timid heart, fear-fettered; guilt-pestered… As my spirit He revives; from doubts, undeterred. Praise-filled, my worshipful soul He cleansed has mustered: “Yours am I, dear Saviour Who can’t be flattered Since You know me so well; fixed my life, then cluttered… Your love freed me; now like a dove, I’m joy*-fluttered.”
