Listen to MY Words, Oh God...

Listen to MY Words, Oh God…


 


Listen to my words, oh God. 


Consider my meditation.


You are my God.  My fortress.  My salvation!


 


Listen to the voice of my cry..


 YOU are my king!


You’ve given me a reason


 to shout and sing!


 


Unto you Oh Lord…  Do I kneel and pray…


You are with me every hour and day!


 


My voice shall you hear in the morning…


As I read your word and


listen to your divine warning!


 


Unto you… My God.


 I shall direct my prayer…


You are omnipresent.  And are always there!


 


You take no pleasure in those


 who do wickedness


But delight in those who


 seek righteousness!


 


I shall come into your house


 of mercy and grace…


And shall spread your good


 news all over the place!


 


I shall worship you in your


 most holy temple


May I daily seek you and be a Godly example…


 


Thank you Lord for your patience


 and understanding…


As I lean on your arms that are everlasting!


 


You have given me a hope


 and love deep within.


It’s in you my Lord,


 where true life begins!


 


By Jim Pemberton  (c) 2010


Read Psalms 3:1-4

About the Poet
I and my wife have 4 grown children and currently live in the Pacific Northwest. I've spent much of my life doing volunteer work in the food distribution for the needy among local churches. Many of the poems I've written are a reflection of times of adversity as a reminder of God's love and faithfulness. I've found many opportunities to share my poems with those who are hurting and discouraged. I'm thankful for the reports of many of the poems touching people's lives. I hope that the poems included on Wordchimes will touch and bless your life too!
