MY GOD, THANK YOU FOR ABIDING IN ME
Thank You for abiding in me thru Your holiness
Since You’ve already sanctified me by Your purifying righteousness
Absolutely granting me Your forgiveness’ wholeness
Now, I’m cleansed from filthy sin-wickedness.
Thank You for abiding in me thru Your grace
Since You’ve already saved me by Your rescuing embrace
Absolutely giving me Your eternity’s rays
Now, I’m freed from grievous hell-penalty trace.
Thank You for abiding in me thru Your mercy
Since You’ve already redeemed me by Your ransoming clemency
Absolutely gripping me Your care’s fervency
Now, I’m pulled from apathetic hatred-supremacy.
Thank You for abiding in me thru Your compassion
Since You’ve already regenerated me by Your empowering function
Absolutely guarding me Your love’s protection
Now, I’m upheld from evil transgression-destruction.
Thank You for abiding in me thru Your presence
Since You’ve already chosen me by Your adopting license
Absolutely gladdening me with Your revival’s iridescence
Now, I’m encouraged from sorrowful plight-incense.
Thank You for abiding in me thru Your leadership
Since You’ve already converted me by Your transforming workmanship
Absolutely governing me with Your authority’s fellowship
Now, I’m extricated from worldly friendship-partnership.
Thank You for abiding in me thru Your victory
Since You’ve already blessed me by Your triumphing glory
Absolutely guiding me with Your history’s story
Now, I’m uplifted from frustrating loss-misery.
