TO YOU, O LORD, I LIFT UP MY SOUL

The challenges of life are numerous;

Some are difficult and even dangerous.

The soul is sometimes vexed or fearful;

Turning to the Lord in prayer is needful.

 

Enemies are found in the pathway of life;

They seek to create mischief and strife.

The godly and wise will turn to God in prayer;

He will cast upon the Lord his sorrow and care.

 

Trust in the Lord cannot be taken for granted;

Faith in the Lord must be checked and evaluated.

Renewal of trust in the Lord must be deepened;

This is possible as we seek the Lord in Heaven.

 

The soul that looks up to God will not be ashamed;

The Lord will honour all who trust in His name.

The lifting up of the soul is the wisest thing to do;

The Lord will manifest that He is faithful and true!
