Confidence

The Lord is my chosen portion,
My cup that is holding my lot;
With such a heavenly potion,
Of righteousness that I have sought.

The lines fell in pleasant places,
With a lovely inheritance;
A good birthright of God’s graces,
From my forgiven penitence.

I bless the Lord who gives counsel,
He instructs my heart in the night;
My impure thoughts He will cancel,
As He increases my insight.

I have set the Lord before me,
Because He is at my right hand;
I shall not be shaken to see,
As I revere every command.

My heart is glad starts to rejoice,
My flesh dwells as it feels secure;
I rest in hope and lift my voice,
Knowing that God helps me endure.

God will not abandon my soul,
When I would see some corruption;
Will-power keeps under control,
With an enticed interruption.

The Lord makes known the path of life,
Fullness of joy in His presence;
His pleasures to combat the strife,
Having a tranquil confidence.
