I kneel in the presence of God,
Who is my Father in Heaven;
And to whom I honor and laud,
For the love that He has given.
Let it be known as I proclaim,
His family down here on earth;
Everyone receives His name,
Has been renewed through His rebirth.
I ask God to give you a gift,
Of the glory whence of His wealth;
Strength and power that will uplift,
Through His Spirit for righteous health.
Then through faith Christ will live in you,
As love is the ground for your roots;
Being fertile to sink into,
And reaping delicious fruits.
You already have salvation,
In giving faith its true belief;
To establish your foundation,
For giving your stress its relief.
You will then fully understand,
The length, height, and depth of His love;
As well as with every strand,
That flows down like a stream thereof.
You know the love of Jesus Christ,
That goes far beyond the knowledge;
Willingness to be sacrificed,
And the reason we pay homage.
I am praying you are complete,
Filled with His mercy and grace;
No more using any deceit,
For causing you any disgrace.
