Though I have trials,
tests and tribulations
my cup remains full . . .
of God’s declarations.
For He promises to me,
not to leave or forsake
and in His living water
I can always partake.
Though I have problems,
concerns, worries and cares
my cup remains full . . .
knowing He hears my prayers.
For He promises to me,
today’s grace is enough
and that He’ll be with me
whenever the road gets rough.
Though I have tribulations,
trials, tests and problems
my cup overflows . . .
with the faith to overcome!
~~~~~~~~
My cup runneth over.

~ to GOD be the GLORY ~
When today I see a rainbow,
in the rainy, cloudy skies . . .
I have to ponder if it’s formed
from all of our tears and cries.
For, a rainbow can’t be seen,
unless the Son shines too
and I wonder if it holds . . .
God, surrendered hearts to You.
When today I see a rainbow,
I see a commitment once made
I have to ponder if it’s formed
of lost sheep that have strayed.
For, a rainbow can’t be seen,
unless the Son comes out too
and I wonder if it holds . . .
God, those coming back to You.
When today I see a rainbow,
I sit and I ponder . . .
the promise that God made
and I marvel at its wonder!
~~~~~~~~~~
And God said, This is the token
of the covenant which I make
between me and you and every
living creature that is with you,
for perpetual generations:
I do set my bow in the cloud,
and it shall be for a token
of a covenant between me
and the earth.

God keeps His promises,
His Word never fails
His promises He keeps
right down to the details.
Promises of new life,
that His Son brings
promises of hope
to work out all things.
Promises of comfort,
when trails we face
promises of new mercy
and sufficient grace.
Promises of blessings,
of every spiritual kind
promises of His peace
to guard heart and mind.
Promises to finish,
all that He has begun
promises of salvation
through the gift of His Son.
God keeps His promises,
they are solid as a Rock
He promises us Jesus . . .
will return for His flock!
~~~~~~~~~~
Let us hold fast the profession
of our faith without wavering;
for he is faithful that promised;

My God has designs,
He will figure this out
He has a plan for me
in this I do not doubt.
Though I’m concerned,
He knows just what to do
and so my Father . . .
in faith I leave this with You.
My God keeps His promises,
He is forever merciful
everything He does
is perfectly purposeful.
Though I may be worried,
I am not afraid
for I know with God
I’m not to be dismayed.
My God is good,
He’s always fair and just
that is why in Him . . .
I choose to place my trust!

“The Lord will perfect
that which concerneth me:
thy mercy, O Lord,
endureth for ever:
forsake not the works
of thine own hands.”

Lord, when I’m feeling beaten,
when l feel trodden on and down
You promised I’d be a conqueror
and to give me victories crown.
And when I’m feeling bound up,
when my spirit’s tied up in knots
You promised to be my deliverer
and to capture all my thoughts.
And when I’m feeling confused,
when my mind wanders about
You promised to be my counselor
and to rid me of all my doubt.
And when I’m feeling like a failure,
when my life is but a mess
You promised I’d be an overcomer
and to help me to onward press.
And when I’m feeling fearful,
when anxiety has me in a stew
You promised me Your power
and a mind that is sound too.
And when I’m feeling lonesome,
when no one else comes into my day
You promised to be my forever Friend
and my companion along the way.
Lord, when the day comes to an end,
when darkness captures the night
You promised to be my lamp . . .
and Your Word to be my light!
~~~~~~~~~~~~
“Whereby are given unto us
exceeding great
and precious promises:
that by these ye might
be partakers of the divine nature,
having escaped the corruption
that is in the world through lust.”
