Always Willing

Always willing to bend down and hear my cry.
Always willing to bring me out of the muddy pit, 
Always celebrating when He sets my feet on the Rock, giving me the firm foundation of His love.

He never withholds His tender mercies from me.
He insists on embracing me with His unfailing love.
His truth shines brightly to lead the way,
    protecting and guarding me.

Even when the misfortunes of life press in on me from all sides,
And my iniquities and consequences weigh me down again.
When courage fails me,
And my eyesight becomes cloudy,
He is there
To do it again,
To pull me up,
Set me firm,
Embrace me with His love,
Putting a song on my lips and joy in my heart.

So patient My Father is as I learn this process of trusting,

Learning that only as I trust can I be happy, satisfied and whole!

Psalms 40
