LORD GOD, YOU ARE MY GOOD PURSUIT-OVERTAKER
Lord God, You are my good pursuit-Overtaker
midst faults of weakness
Thank You for Your peace, upholding me through Your calmness
With Your presence favouring me by Your uprightness
To overcome adversaries’ attacks toward fruitlessness.
Lord God, You are my good pursuit-Overtaker
midst fears of scarcity
Thank You for Your provisions, filling me against poverty
With Your grace assuring me with Your bounty
To smite battling insecurity and crises-uncertainty.
Lord God, You are my good pursuit-Overtaker
midst folly of worldly shame
Thank You for Your plan, pulling me from destructive game
With Your power extinguishing grievous distress-flame
To conquer captivity of selfishness and slothfulness’ blame.
Lord God, You are my good pursuit-Overtaker
midst fainting of conviction
Thank You for Your pressing, taking me away from spoiling affliction
With Your healing delivering me against illness’ destruction
To win against sickness and feelings of desperation.
Lord God, You are my good pursuit-Overtaker
midst frustration of fleshly driving
Thank You for Your preservation, restoring me toward divine thriving
With Your mercy making me recover from worthless striving
To vanquish pride’s salutation that hinders spiritual reviving.
Lord God, You are my good pursuit-Overtaker
midst futility of tarrying in vain
Thank You for Your protection, guarding me from quitting strain
With Your victory enabling me toward faith-gain
To face threats that unbelief brings along service-terrain.
Lord God, You are my good pursuit-Overtaker
midst failures of drawing Your Bible-sword
Thank You for Your providence, fastening me to Your loving cord
With Your wisdom upholding me to publish Your Word
To solve problems caused by forsaking Your truths’ record.
