Poetry

---

Open the gates of righteousness,
That I may enter into them;
Praise with delight my flawlessness,
Ascertain God will not condemn.

For this is the gate of the Lord,
Only the righteous enter through;
Because they are in one accord,
They are faithful and remain true.

I will thank Him and praise His name,
He has become my salvation;
My outreach will also proclaim,
New birth makes a new creation.

The stone the builders rejected,
And has become the cornerstone;
In which that I have selected,
For being spiritually grown.

It is the doing of the Lord,
And marvelous in our eyes;
That it should never be ignored,
As to give insight and be wise.

This is the day the Lord has made,
Let us rejoice for being glad;
There is no need to be afraid,
With confidence not to be sad.

He saves us whenever we pray,
When we pray, He give us success;
As long as we trust and obey,
We are assured that He will bless.

Blessings in the name of the Lord,
Blessings Him to be in His house;
With the faithful in one accord,
Together worship with your spouse.

The Lord is God who made the light,
Binding the sacrifice with cords;
With a glory shining so bright,
His Word are filled with two-edged swords.

He is my God who I give praise,
His steadfast love lasts forever;
Remembering Him all my days,
For the love that will not sever.
