Let The Words

"Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart Be acceptable in Your sight, Oh LORD, my strength and my Redeemer."  (NKJV) 
                                 - Psalm 19:14

Let the words of my mouth be right
      and acceptable in Your sight,
Oh LORD, let the thoughts of my heart
     bring praise to Thee. Let me depart
from every evil way and live
     for Your glory. Kindly forgive
if my words injure anyone, 
     if at their expense, I have fun. 
If I tell lies, let me repent, 
    Remember for every word spent, 
I have to give account to Thee, 
    Only You know the real me;
Season my words, my demeanour, 
    You are my Strength, my Redeemer.

Victor Buhagiar March 9, 2025 at 10:14 AM We are a mix instilled in us by the evil one. Yet Our Lord loves us so much that He underwent a terrible martyrdom. Great Psalm.
