Psalm 19

Perfect peace too rare, yet so fair,
Fear’s shadow cannot hover there.
Think on His thoughts; no earthly care.
Peace guards your mind everywhere!
When peace pervades a heart once bare,
It spills into the atmosphere,
Till even strangers are aware,
Together you make a lovely pair!
***

Oh. let me use my gifts for you;

To bring glory to your name.

And this vessel from which it came;

     See that it's veiled from their view.

      SO as my own visage grows dim.

     Let all the glory go to Him!

    THUS may I be hidden in Christ,

     He is what it's all about.

When people let their thanks ring out.

     Let them turn toward heavens heights!

    May  your glory beam so brightly.

    That they scarcely know just who,

    The Father chose very quietly

    To shine His love out through.

   For when He shares His Divine Self

    Let that be your sole reward,

   A prized joint heirloom from The Lord.

   Thank you God for heaven's wealth !

Ruddy Adam in bucolic Eden; frolics sod sin had not trod.
A Spirit educated man, with an all over fantastic tan;
Soon to be sin’s fool.
But a wound to the heal, didn’t supplant the real deal,
So heavenly cool!
Flesh ‘n bone cocooned to spirit, then kissed the face of God!
