What Trustworthy Reason To Rejoice
On this wild and wooly Canadian winter morning...a love song!
Sweet and sobering helped inspire this poem.
The secret of the Lord is with those who fear Him,Ps.25:14
What wondrous reason to rejoiceHope sets my heart ablazeAnd beckons me to lift my voiceIn hymns of gladdest praise
What awed expectation holds dearWhich He reveals to all who fear
What countless reasons to be gladIn spite of sorrow’s woeBecause of the sorrow God hadBecause He loves me/us so
He, whose love is Set my captive soul free; He gaveHis Son to ransom me
The blood of Jesus washed awaySin’s curse; nothing else couldNow each day grants a chance to payMy debt of gratitude
…with joy and hope's trust-worthy praiseWhere endless reasons brimTo live a worship hymn
...and never let love's gladness ceaseThrough wayward wish or whimTo all who trust in Him

And blessed be His glorious name forever; may all the earth be filled with His glory. Amen and amen.
Due to the gale more birds are opting for ground-cover today😂😅
