Not Affraid

Enthralled in his word as it gives me joy,
Everlasting knowledge is what I will gain.
Knowing of his grace humbles me to a little boy,
For my tears of joy may rain.
My spirit is filled with his joy as it takes me over,
For no other name sounds so sweet off the tip of my tongue.
For my rejoicing I shall not cover,
For I shall not be ashamed of the blessings which is brought,
Unto me a joy that the world didn't give and it can't take it away.
I would give anything just to spend a day,
In Gods kingdom I shall thank him.
For he always will make a way through every unseen pathway in life,
When times get hard but he will always be your light even though life may be dim.
My heart's song is his song of praise,
For unto this day i just want to say thank you for everything.
