Making Your Ways To Please the Lord -Proverbs 16: 7

As human beings, we go our own ways
too often these ways end up so wrong
but as well as being wrong there's right
better to ask God who keeps us strong

The best advice we can take heed to
is from God who knows everything
listen well to His voice in His word
always trying best to obey the God-king

We receive a double blessing from the Lord
when His ways are ours bringing Him pleasure
that's when we are supremely blessed indeed
receiving such a superabundant treasure

For God turns our enemies around
so that peace unites even our foes
making unity to be our reward
God is able to defeat all our woes
