I rejoice in the Lord greatly,
That now at length for to revive;
On how I am feeling lately,
God is making me feel alive.
You indeed had concern for me,
But had no opportunity;
For the insight that you could see,
Of noticing an impurity.
I speak not of being in need,
And learned from a situation;
Feeling content as to succeed,
In building on my foundation.
For I know how to be brought low,
As well as in how to abound;
Having reactions to be slow,
For solutions that can be found.
I learned the secret to face guilt,
And how to face hunger and thirst;
So that the foundation is built,
Knowing that I need not be first.
I am able to do all things,
Through the One who has strengthened me;
For the peace and comfort, He brings,
Opens my eyes so I can see.
It is kind to share my trouble,
And share the words of the Gospel;
Pull others out of the rubble,
Helping the needs of all people.
No church into a partnership,
In the giving and receiving;
Straying away from true worship,
No longer as Bible believing.
The Lord sends me help for my needs,
Not that I am seeking a gift;
But of the fruit in which one feeds,
Increases faith that will up lift.
I have received payment in full,
A sacrifice pleasing to God;
Having become the perfect tool,
For support to honor and laud.
But I know that God will supply,
For everything desired;
To be fruitful and multiply,
What your provision required.
