The Heavenly Word - Psalm 119: 89-96
The word of God so firmly fixed
away high in the heavens above
full of faithfulness forever
comes out of God's forever love
For we all stand or fall
on God's permitted word divine
our servants include our all
so willing be in God's line
Never may my mind forget
thy word and counsel supreme
for in this, I have known life
given by God who does redeem
So often I've sought your word
for I know there is salvation
you are mine and I am yours
as the wicked seek me every occasion
Your word testifies to me
this has come down from heaven
so I can receive it to myself
for in this thy spirit has driven
(This is my " Psalm 119 project" which I began to write a couple of years ago, so this is the twelfth poem of twenty-two poems I've written over that time to cover all of Psalm 119. )
