Trusting Truly

Tune: Everlasting Love

('Loved with everlasting love')

Psalm 62

*********

Truly my soul on God waits

His help to me ne'er abates

From Him comes my salvation

I praise, give adoration

He only my rock, defence

I not be moved greatly hence

He only my rock, defence

I not be moved greatly hence

 

How long will you, enemies

Imagine mischief and seize

On the righteous, your end shall

Come soon, and to all then tell

How you fall as fence or wall

Though you built your towers tall

How you fell as fence or wall

Though you built your towers tall

 

My soul, wait on God only

My hope is still from Him, see

He only my salvation

And my rock, the holy one

He my defence, safeguard sure

I not be moved evermore

He my defence, safeguard sure

I not be moved evermore

 

God my salvation, glory

Rock of my strength He e'er be

In Him is my refuge strong

He preserves me all life long

Men at best are vanity

But the Lord eternal be

Men at best are vanity

But the Lord eternal be

 

Trust not men, but trust the Lord

Assured of His living word

All power to Him belongs

Sing unto Him worthy songs

And He merciful, here see

Rewards each one's work, so be

And He merciful, here see

Rewards each one's work, so be

 

Trust in Him all times, people

Pour out your hearts, to Him call

Upon Him, our refuge He

And our guardian shall be

Wait on Him, prayer shall He hear

You shall sense His presence near

Wait on Him, prayer shall He hear

You shall sense His presence near

    ANGELA HERE ~ GOOD SUNDAY UNCLE STEVE ~ Love the HYMN & the Video. Love the lines

    Sky above is brighter BLUE ~ EARTH beneath is softer GREEN ~
    Something gleams in every HUE ~ Christless Eyes have never seen !

    The concept being that when we are BORN AGAIN we cease to be just GODS CREATURES (A little
    higher than the APES) and we become ~ GODS CHILDREN (Just a little lowers than the Angels !) And we perceive everything in a new Spiritual Light ~ even FIDO & SMOKEY ! Two of Gods greatest CREATURES ! I love the ending of PSALM 62

    My God offers ME ~ an Eternal Security
    It cannnot be defined logically in Manspeak
    BUT I experience it 24/7 !
    When you commit your Life to GOD
    You discover an ANCHOR (I speak as a Sailor)
    That will hold firm in the Chaos of Existance
    And the Prattle of Godless Intellectuals ~ AMEN

    A Psalm a day keeps the DEVIL away !

    Blessing & Joy to you & your Playful Pup
    Love in the Spirit Angela Brian & Smokey !
