The Fruit Of My Lips ~

May the fruit of my lips,
produce bountiful praise
to God for His faithfulness
and His wondrous ways.

May my lips create music,
generate songs to sing
making a joyful noise
honoring my eternal King.

May the fruit of my lips,
deliver my thankfulness
with hearty hallelujahs
showing my gratefulness.

May my lips dance about,
jump with joy and delight
expressing to the world
the hope found in His light.

May the fruit of my lips,
produce bountiful praise
may my gratitude to God
I never stop to raise!

Psalm 51:15

“O Lord, open thou my lips;
and my mouth shall shew
forth thy praise.”

Our Joy ~

This CHRISTmas . . .
I wish you a merry day
with family and close friends
whether near or far away.

I wish you true happiness,
a day filled with sheer delight
a time to snuggle closely
by the warming fire light.

I wish you contentment,
a heart full of gladness
a soul filled with glee
and of cheerfulness.

I wish you true peace,
a home filled with tranquility
surrounded in the perfect love
of God’s amazing serenity.

But mostly I wish you joy,
lasting all the year through
so the light of your salvation
will reflect inside of you!

Trust ~ Delight ~ Commit

Trust in the Lord and do good,
do what you know you should
give to Him your every need
then on His faithfulness feed.

Delight yourself in the Lord,
the crown of life is your award
your heart desires He’ll grant
for He’s the God of can’s not cant’s.

Commit your ways to the Lord,
eternal life will be your reward
go to Him each day in prayer
and give to Him your every care.

Rest in the Lord and wait,
He will not let you faint
be not anxious or worried
for, God is not to be hurried.

Trust in the Lord and commit,
in His Word stay well and fit
rest in the truth and be still
and delight in doing His will!

Psalm 37:3-4

Trust in the Lord, and do good;
so shalt thou dwell in the land,
and verily thou shalt be fed.
Delight thyself also in the Lord:
and he shall give thee the
desires of thine heart.
Commit thy way unto the Lord;
trust also in him;
and he shall bring it to pass.

A Simple Easy Joy ~

A simple, easy joy,
a feeling full of bliss
an elation that I feel
a wonder not to miss.

A simple, calming feeling,
a happiness inside me
a serenity deep within
a heart full of glee.

A simple, warming feeling,
a joyousness all around
a delight in every way
a tranquility to be found.

A simple, easy joy,
a feeling like no other kind
a gladness when God’s peace
fills my heart and mind!

for me my mourning
into dancing:
thou hast put off my
sackcloth, and girded me
with gladness.”
