MY GOD, THANK YOU FOR LETTING ME DWELL IN YOUR WILL

Thank You for letting me dwell in Your will’s promised land
Where You nourish me with Your loving hand
As You have dominion over me by Your peaceable command…
Make me give obeisance to You and Your demand.

Thank You for letting me dwell in Your will’s profitable contentment
Where You clothe me with Your comforting holiness-raiment
As You warm me by Your assurance-garment…
Make me stay under Your deliverance-settlement.

Thank You for letting me dwell in Your will’s protective righteousness
Where You guard me against fatal destructiveness
As You lead me toward truthful testimony in conquering foolishness…
Make me abide in Your wisdom of discernment and prudence-fullness.

Thank You for letting me dwell in Your will’s prosperous favour
Where You bless me with abundance favour
As You provide for me, bestowing me Your goodness in my endeavour…
Make me remain inside Your care around Your kindness-fervour.

Thank You for letting me dwell in Your will’s productive supplication
Where You answer me well with Your Word’s instruction and interpretation
As You encourage, inspire, and exhort  me along Your gracious restoration…
Make me feast in Your presence, fellowshipping with You in jubilation.

Thank You for letting me dwell in Your will’s powerful authority
Where You direct me to Your kingdom’s plenteous service-bounty
As You control me with Your Spirit’s certainty…
Make me trust You and Your heart for my faith’s increase and maturity.
