From Psalm 86:2-3:  “Preserve my life, for I am devoted to You; save Your servant who trusts in You.  You are my God; be gracious to me, O Lord, for to You do I cry all day long.”

Devoted to Father

Hearing His endless thoughts

Witnessing heavenly goodness

Life’s lessons always taught

Filled with Father’s steadfast spirit

Trusting His timely grace

Lifting wayward heart from darkness

Love offers mercy’s place

Called to walk in Father’s vision

Turning away from sin

Answering each burden’s prayer

Faith’s glorious linchpin

Delivered light shines upon thee

Words filling confession

Lifting soul from forgotten place

Forgiving transgressions

Comforted with Father’s favor

Rising from empty tomb

Sowing with every seeded field

Peace gathered from each bloom

From Psalm 86:11-12:  “Teach me Your way, O Lord, that I may walk in Your truth; give me an undivided heart to revere Your name.   I give thanks to You, O Lord my God, with my whole heart, and I will glorify Your name forever.”
