The Lord has filled me with joy,
Since you showed interest in me;
Although others I annoy,
For the commitment I plea.
 
Your interests does not show,
I say this because I need;
Where you are planning to go,
In order for to succeed.
 
I have learned to be content,
In the place that I am in;
No matter what the event,
As long as I avoid sin.
 
I know how I can live rich,
As well as with being poor;
And in giving a sales pitch,
Putting my foot in the door.
 
I have learned just how to live,
When I do hunger and thirst;
And also how to forgive,
Not important to be first.
 
I have lived having too much,
As well as when too little;
And yearn for the gentle touch,
A comforting committal.
 
I can do everything,
Through Jesus who strengthens me;
And assured that it will bring,
New avenues for to see.
 
It is kind to share troubles,
Fellowshipping afflictions;
Helping when someone stumbles,
Showing your true affections.
 
For a gift I do not seek,
But the opposite is true;
I remain humble and meek,
Giving to God what is due.
