Remember Him to be Remembered

Lamentations 3:19-24

Keep in mind my trouble and my wandering,
The bitter root and poison I am pondering;
My soul keeps such vivid memory of them,
As they burden me feelings to be condemn;
This I keep in my mind as I live and cope,
Because of knowing that I still have hope;
It is through the love of the Lord to block,
Any chance of self destruction to unlock;
For His mercies do not have any limitation,
They are new every morning in meditation;
For great is the faithfulness of our Lord,
Since He is my heritage with hope restored.
The Lord is good to everyone that waits,
Removing entirely your afflicted weights;
He will shower you with blessings galore,
That will give you wings as eagle to soar;
God helps you to recover from your errs,
And guarantees you as one of His heirs;
Remember Him since He remembers you,
For to be rewarded all the way through.
