I rejoice in the Lord greatly,
That now at the length I revive;
That my confidence is stately,
Makes me thank God I am alive.
You were indeed being concerned,
But without opportunity;
Because of knowing you have learned,
To find spiritual purity.
Not that I speak being in need,
On the means to become content;
But appreciate to succeed,
In love for God that is fervent.
For I know how to be brought low,
But knowing how to be abound;
In circumstances on how they flow,
The secrets facing that are found.
For I can do all things through Him,
Notwithstanding what is well done;
Strengthened me through spiritual vim,
Communicated through the Son.
You know that in the beginning,
No church entered in partnership;
And continued to keep sinning,
That will be causing them to slip.
Not that I desire a gift,
Rather credit for seeking fruit;
The inspiration to uplift,
Displaying the truth at its root.
I have received a full payment,
And I have an ample supply;
For offering a sweet fragrant,
That God gives a pleasing reply.
