Lord, I Dedicate This Poem To You

Lord, to You do I dedicate this poem You deserve Great are You, supremely sovereign, constantly gracious; I honor You, the holy eternal God Whom I serve… Surely faithful, granting salvation, wondrously precious! Great are You, supremely sovereign, constantly gracious… Leading and guarding well with Your teaching precepts’ wisdom; Surely faithful, granting salvation, wondrously precious… To Your control do I submit for my genuine freedom! Leading and guarding well with Your teaching precepts’ wisdom, You do watch over me against traps of adversary. To Your control do I submit for my genuine freedom… For my faith to vanquish temptation by Your victory! You do watch over me against traps of adversary. Since I always trust You, relying on Your mercy’s might… For my faith to vanquish temptation by Your victory--- I thank and praise You – the only way, the truth, and the light! Since I always trust You, relying on Your mercy’s might, Never do you forsake me in my failure’s vexation. I thank and praise You – the only way, the truth, and the light; Verily You bless my life for stewardship-fruition! Never do you forsake me in my failure’s vexation; You enable my triumph by Your love midst trials’ pain. Verily You bless my life for stewardship-fruition… Making me joyous in learning heavenly lessons’ gain! You enable my triumph by Your love midst trials’ pain; I honor You, the holy eternal God* Whom I serve… Making me joyous in learning heavenly lessons’ gain. Lord, to You do I dedicate this poem You deserve! *1Timothy 1:17 Now unto the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only wise God, be honour and glory for ever and ever. Amen.
