('The church of God a kingdom is')
Parts of Psalms 46 to 48
*********
God is our refuge and strength, He
A very sure help be
He present in our troubled times
Through life's verse and rhymes
Be still and know He is God, see
He will exalted be
Among the peoples of the earth
Praise Him, give Him His worth
O clap your hands, raise joyful shout
You peoples, praise ring out
Let the vice of triumph be heard
It be His living word
For He o'er all the earth is King
Your worship to Him bring
Sing praises with understanding
Be grateful for each thing
Great is the Lord, His residence
His people, they do sense
It be mount Zion, His temple
Give thanks now, one and all
His enemies did flee away
They saw Zion that day
They troubled at His greatness, might
Defeated in His sight
As is your name, Lord, so your praise [is]
We to you anthems raise
You good and righteous, us you bless
Your mercy we confess

Orchi I have always thought if there were a God his/her words would have been in perfect meter and rhyme, after all nature speaks thus in its very vibrations. Good one Orchi
Does he/she say ye, thou, thee, etc?! Thanks SB.
I proclaim this to be a fine hymn poem .. perhaps ..
there are those who know more about these things than me ..
I finely thank you N.
Despite the fact I have never cared for religion, I do quite like the words you write and the way you play with verses. Keep making these beautiful pieces.
Thanks K. 'Tis why I mark them 'spiritual' and not 'religion', which can be the cause of untold troubles.
Good one Orchi
Thanks Gold.
