LORD GOD, YOU ARE MY PRIDE’S CONQUEROR
Lord God, You are my pride’s Conqueror with Your powerful grace
Thank You for bringing me out from hell’s wrathful embrace
Always breaking the chains of my worldly race
While rescuing me from desolation of sinfulness’ trace.
Lord God, You are my pride’s Conqueror with Your supreme ruling
Thank You for setting me to respond to Your heavenly calling
Always freeing my heart from arrogance-spoiling
While causing me to bud forth midst threats of falling.
Lord God, You are my pride’s Conqueror with Your great service-fire
Thank You for lifting me up from captivity’s drowning mire
Always stretching my reach-out pursuits to what You divinely require
While helping me against feelings to quit and retire.
Lord God, You are my pride’s Conqueror with Your inspired Word
Thank You for protecting me by Your Scripture’s sword
Always beautifying my virtues with Your forgiveness record
While sanctifying me by Your mercy You alone can afford.
Lord God, You are my pride’s Conqueror with Your assured promises
Thank You for enlightening me to give You my praises
Always filling my worship with Your joy that blesses
While delivering me from unbelief by Your caring forces.
Lord God, You are my pride’s Conqueror with Your omnipotent might
Thank You for pardoning me of my confessed transgression-blight
Always teaching my mind to learn from Your wisdom’s insight
While illumining me with Your truth, perfectly right.
