Life Full of Joy

Midst happenings’ adventures Beyond happiness-overtures My soul, wrapped with joyousness* Exalts God’s redemption’s preciousness. Against sin-guilt tortures Surpassing sorrow’s despair gestures My spirit, gripped by Christ’s forgiveness Worships Him with grateful blissfulness. Toward refreshing green pastures Guarded from unbelief junctures My faith, resting in the Lord’s trustworthiness Increases to minister through His graciousness.
*Psalm 43:4 Then will I go unto the altar of God, unto God my exceeding joy: yea, upon the harp will I praise thee, O God my God. August 6, 2019
