Poetry

---

Your Word firmly-fixed in Heaven,
Forever and ever, O Lord;
The wonderfulness has given,
And settled in one accord.

Your faithfulness endures to all,
Generations that lives on earth;
As established hearing You call,
It stands fast, abiding Your worth.

By appointment they stand this day,
For Your servants and for all things;
Your ordinances I obey,
Because of the goodness it brings.

If Your Law as not my delight,
I would perish with affliction;
And never having the insight,
From an immoral addiction.

I will not forget Your precepts,
For by them You have given life;
Before the devil intercepts,
That would be causing so much strife.

I am Yours, pleading that You save,
For I have sought in Your teaching;
For I want not to be a slave,
To Satan and his out reaching.

Evil has been lying in wait,
For the wicked want to destroy;
But Your evidence seals my fate,
That I will righteously deploy.

I have seen ending perfection,
But Your doctrine is transcending;
As it is giving direction,
Because it is never ending.
