I rejoice in the Lord greatly,
Now that you at length have revived;
You were of such concern lately,
No opportunity has survived.
Not that I am speaking of need,
I have learned how to be content;
No matter the of what indeed,
The situation may relent.
I know how to be brought down low,
Also knowing how to abound;
In the circumstances that flow,
Learn how the secret can be found.
Hunger to abundance of need,
I can do all things to strengthen;
God will show us how to succeed,
For our life to be lengthen.
You know about my affliction,
That has been started through trouble;
It had come from an addiction,
That buried me in some rubble.
You know that in the beginning,
Before preaching with the Gospel;
How we had kept about sinning,
Not being honest with people.
No church entered in partnership,
Into giving and receiving;
For it was not a true worship,
Most of them were misbelieving.
You sent me help and render aid,
For all of my need once and again;
Necessity and not afraid,
Consequences that might had been.
Not that I am seeking a gift,
But the fruit to increase credit;
Incentives to make me uplift,
Of what I do in my merit.
I have received payment in full,
And now I have been well supplied;
Because of support that you pull,
Out of waste for the crucified.
You sent a fragrant offering,
Sweet smelling pleasing to God;
Christ present for my buffering.
Curing me where I had been flawed.
