Aspects of Wealth - A Blessing

Tune: University

('The church of God a kingdom is')

Deuteronomy 30 v.9; Proverbs 22 v.4

********

And the Lord God will plenteous

In every work make us

Work of your hand, fruit of body

And fruit of cattle, see

 

And in fruit of your land, for good

will bless, provide your food

Will rejoice over you again

As so to former kin

 

By humility and the fear

Of the Lord, it kept near

By such are riches, life, honour

His blessings do confer

  • Comment from author about the poem: A hymn-poem in 8.6.8.6. I started a series on aspects of 'wealth'. It didn't get far. It was a very short series of 2 poems! In the Old Testament, wealth, material and spiritual, was seen as a sign of God's favour.

    I suspect there might still be one or two who view wealth (fiscal wealth) similarly .. yet there are so many more ways to be rich that are ignored and less valued .. we are a very greedy species .. Neville

      Good fortune is best when shared. Hopefully those who have been so blessed with gain, will also choose to give. Lovely!
