My dear heart, keep me thankful to God for His goodness
sanctified from sins’ filthiness
showing desire to praise Him with earnestness
as soul is settled upon His Word’s truthfulness
with prayer for kindness-works’ fruitfulness.
My dear heart, let me offer to the Lord speech of grace-fulfillment
cleansed from worldliness’ defilement
proclaiming salvation and heavenly settlement
letting tongue say cheers of encouragement
with conviction for holiness-commitment.
My dear heart, help me glorify the Almighty with His granted divine nature
abased from bitterness and pride’s torture
asserting pursuit for effective faith-venture
while will is controlled by His love and truth’s gesture
with submission for humility’s nurture.
My dear heart, enable me to exalt Christ along His reign
rebuked from discontentment’s sprain
revealing gratefulness for blessings’ gain
as my walk goes onward His righteousness’ terrain
with persistence in overcoming flesh-strain.
My dear heart, make show to the Saviour triumphant delight
restrained from corruption’s blight
verbalizing my concerns for biblical standards’ height
having vision brightened by His wisdom’s light
with understanding to do what is right.
My dear heart, instill in me the joy of sharing Jesus and His Gospel story
freed from doubts’ slavery and condemnation's misery
declaring thanksgiving for His assured victory
since my trust manifests total dependence against worry
with determination to seek Him always, living for His glory.
My dear heart*, testify with me that the Creator is the Source of compassion
since He gives forgiveness toward confessed selfish action
always ready to build lives by His omnipotent participation
inviting dedicated involvement in His Great Commission
with consistency to reach-out by His love's fruition.
Psalm 9:1 ...I will praise thee], O LORD, with my whole heart; I will shew forth all thy marvellous works.
