You, Oh God, are so good. Your kindness is unfailing. Your mercy is engulfing. You cause me to rise up from the pit in which I was placed. You lift my head, and calm my heart. What mortal thing should I fear? Will You not hear me when I cry out to You? I know, dearest Lord, that You will be with me in times of trouble. You will comfort me, and will take what my foes indented for evil, and use it for good. How high are Your ways above mine? I can not begin to comprehend! How vast is your compassion on me, that You would look upon me with favor? Will I ever understand?

May my eyes be set on things eternal. May I always long for Your hearts desire. May I worship You in good times and bad. May I sing Your praises all day long, and may my soul continue in this melody even as I rest. Oh if I could only put my ear against heavens gates, and hear the songs of the angels before You. If I could only express the melody in my heart, which rises up to You never stopping. This song that consumes me, though I do not know the notes, and can not conjure up the words. My language does not do You justice. You deserve so much more than I could ever offer.
