The Lord works righteousness, Justice for the oppressed; Showing His faithfulness, For those who have confessed. For He made known His ways, His acts to the people; Gracious to those who praise, Going to His temple. The Lord is merciful, Plenty of steadfast love; Making all beautiful, From His throne up above. He will not always chide, Nor keeping His anger; For those who will abide, And who will not linger. He does not deal with us, After we commit sin; Nor repaying as thus, But He will discipline. For as high as Heaven, Being above the earth; Steadfast love is given, Those fearing since their birth. Far as east is from west, He removes transgressions; Confessing at its best, Stopping the aggressions. A father will console, Compassion of who fear; To comfort their soul, For those who will revere. For He knows our frame, Knowing that we are dust; Cancelling our shame, When we give our trust. Copyright ©2022 Richard Newton Sherrer Vote for this poem
