Presence in joy


Philippians 4:1 

Christian Practices

4 So then, my brothers and sisters, dear friends whom I long to see,

my joy and crown, stand in the Lord in this way, my dear friends!

 

My joy, my crown are You my Lord ... in contentment complete.

Perfection lifts me up ... into the Heavenly places

Far beyond the point ... of my limited understanding

There to be with Christ ... throughout daily races

 

You are my strength, my Savior ... everything I need

Help me now to live as such ... every day and night

Let it be shown in my behavior as I travel with God’s speed

So showing that I’m in touch ... through living in what's right.
