Assuring Aspirations

orchidee



Tune: Engelberg

('All praise to the, for thou, O King divine')

************

Peace, my heart, and peace unto my mind too

Ponder on God's treasures, they old and new

Carry His presence within, all times be

His witness constantly

 

Many necessary tasks, daily life

Yet attend to them without trouble, strife

Let not any fears alarm, disturb here

Know God's presence is near

 

Grow in this communion, steady flow

With spiritual understanding Him know

More and more, Him revealing of Himself

His blessings, heavenly wealth

 

Vanities in the world aplenty are

Sadly we do not have to seek them far

Faith arises from within, for bar none

God reigns, Sovereign One
