To the Measure
To the measure you seek, you find
And reaping comes after you sow.
From the depths of humility known,
Then to exaltation flown.
To the measure you give, it is given
And love fully granted, is earned.
From self to selflessness learned:
Then spectacular blessings return.
To the measure you knock, it is opened
And if you keep asking, it’s granted.
When faith as a seed is planted
Then the work of the devil, supplanted.
To the measure you pray, He moves
And petitions lifted, He hears.
From mountains far to valleys near,
Earnest prayers bend His ear.
To the measure you weep, you’ll rejoice
If a broken heart you surrender
Joy unspeakable will be rendered
And hope finds spectacular splendor.
To the measure you never stop seeking
And you weary the Lord with your pleas
So God’s provisions will flow with ease
And your longings, forever appeased.
To the measure you believe that He IS…
And that He rewards all who seek after
New blessings from floor to the rafters
Will endure in your life everlasting.
