Poetry

---

In the morning God shall hear my voice,
For I'll lift it up in praise as I rejoice;
In maintaining vigilance as I will observe,
For the coming of my Lord that I serve;
My God has no pleasure into wickedness,
In the presence of God no evil cursedness;
Oh, what a feeling for starting out the day,
Every morning with a time for us to pray;
Thanking God for a great night of rest,
And along with everything He has blest;
A time to reflect on God what He done,
Never once has He forsaken or abandon;
A peace and comfort that comes about,
That is within us and shedding no doubt;
His Holy Spirit ignites the internal flame,
It is why we are eager to praise His name;
All day long we feel so safe and secure,
Knowing our Lord is guarding the door;
Enlightening me with great possibilities,
That Satan will not hamper any abilities.
