Wondrous Wellspring

Of all the countless things we give thanks forOne transcends them all! :1The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. Not for boast or laud from mortalsNot for fame or vain successLet me be a humble vesselYielded to Thy holiness Tuned to the tender persuasionOf Thy wisdom through Thy WordFor Thy counsel thwarts temptationQuenches evil passions stirred Pours me through and through with wonderAs grace and repentance wedSatisfies want’s thirst and hungerWith living water and bread Write in me Thy Great Love StoryLet goodness and mercy’s seaStun/run me through and through with gloryOnly ever all for Thee Fashion from the cares of livingAnd from meditation’s heartA wellspring of pure thanksgivingSinging God, how great Thou art © Janet Martin
