Portion Promise

Tune: Everton

('Son of God, eternal Saviour')

Psalm 73 v.23-28

********

You, LORD, with me, I with you be

By your grace continually

You have held my by my right hand

In you I not fall, but stand

You shall guide me with your counsel

It comes from your wisdom all

Then afterwards shall me receive

To your glory, I believe

 

Whom have I in heaven but you?

Only God and only true

And there none on earth i desire

Besides you, I you admire

My flesh and my ehart do fail me

But God strength of my heart be

He is my portion for ever

Promise to leave me never

 

For they that are far from Him shall

Perish, and shall not do well

He shall destroy those unfaithful

Whose hearts are set on evil

But it is good for me to draw

Near to God, he will help sure

I have put my trust  in the Lord

GOD, and tell His works and words

    Hello Orchidee,

    A superb write.

    For me 2 Thessalonians 3:3 comes to mind when I read this.
