Triumphant Journey
“And the LORD said unto me, Arise, take thy journey before the people, that they may go in and possess the land, which I sware unto their fathers to give unto them.” Deuteronomy 10:11 of the King James Bible
Journey in the Lord’s presence
Assures love’s iridescence
Guided by His glowing light
Securing me in grace-delight.
Triumphant journey onward
Propelled by faith-trek upward
Drives my spirit to soar high
While toward God I draw nigh.
For my journey’s direction
I trust with circumspection
The Saviour Who is the way
Perfectly midst goodness’ ray.
Journeying toward truth-route
My heart keeps reaching-out
Sharing Jesus’ peace and bliss
With kindness I should not miss.
Against journey hindrances
Despair, trials, and losses
The Holy Spirit I seek
Strengthening me since I’m weak.
In journey to promised land
My heart cleaves to Master’s hand
As I abide in His will
Resolved that tasks I fulfill.
When my journey comes to end
Festive rest in Christ I’ll spend
Surpassed by glorious worship
Thanking Him for His friendship.
