 Sir Ricky's Inspirational Poetry Corner

The Lord is my salvation,

And my light, whom shall I fear?

I am His new creation,

And knowing that He is near.

 

The Lord is my strength in life,

Of whom shall I be afraid;

My stronghold against the strife,

Like a thief that comes to raid.

 

Enemies assail to steal,

My adversaries and foes;

They stumble having no zeal,

The flesh falls as their blood flows.

 

A hostile army encamps,

But my heart shall never fear;

For the foot of the Lord stamps,

Their encampment so severe.

 

For I will be confident,

If war rises against me;

His promise is evident,

As my guardian to see.

 

What I have asked of the Lord,

I seek to dwell in His house;

Let me be in one accord,

All of my days with my spouse.

 

Never let me be ignored,

During times of my trouble;

For faithfulness of the Lord,

Rescue me from the rubble.

 

Times of trouble He hides me,

Undercover to conceal;

On His rock, He will decree,

His secrets He will reveal.

 

My head shall be lifted up,

Above the wicked and foes;

I drink from the sacred cup,

So that my righteousness grows.
