The Lord Conquers Me
The Lord conquers me by His truth!
I thank Him for girding me along my faith…
Anchoring my steadfastness thru His standards
Against doubts and unbelief.
The Lord conquers me by His sovereignty!
I honour Him for uplifting me in my submission…
Breaking my pride thru His holiness
Against haughtiness and self-glorying.
The Lord conquers me by His wisdom*!
I praise Him for correcting me of my ignorance…
Guiding my decisions thru His precepts
Against indecency and vanity.
The Lord conquers me by His might!
I esteem Him for propelling me toward my commitment…
Blessing my labor thru His approval
Against fruitlessness and indolence.
*Ephesians 1:17 That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him.
