A refection on Psalm 97

January 23, 2016 by Chris Gribble

97

The forgiven life is the only way,
Self declared hope ends in despair,
Its self focussed worship,
Leads to a deeper ache,
The shame of false promises,
Disappointments surround pride’s voice.

God’s voice declares his truth to all who listen,
It brings a joyous noise to the world,
Deafness is the poorest excuse,
Because God has made sure,
That everyone can know who He is.

My life will now be lived listening to God,
Deep joy surrounds waking each day,
My sleep is full of satisfied dreams,
Eternity promises shared creativity with my God,
We will share forever in life’s beauty,
Forever in a home where I belong.
