“The Lord is my chosen portion and my cup; you hold my lot. The lines have fallen for me in pleasant places; indeed, I have a beautiful inheritance. I bless the Lord who gives me counsel; in the night also my heart instructs me. I have set the Lord always before me; because he is at my right hand, I shall not be shaken. Therefore my heart is glad, and my whole being rejoices; my flesh also dwells secure.” Psalms 16:5–9
It would be easy to lament that one’s life may be of no lasting consequence
When contemplating the incomprehensible vastness of the universe expanse
But know this God gave up His only Son to suffer and to die just for you
On that cruel Cross He proved His incredible mercy and His love so true
Christ Jesus taking upon Himself the horrible penalty for our sin
Only asking that we humbly repent and place all our trust in Him
The source of immeasurable grace and matchless righteousness
By His resurrection He conquered death for our timely deliverance
Now we have the glorious guarantee of His priceless inheritance
Hallelujah! Come feast at the table of this blessed assurance
Our hope and joy forever established by His precious blood for our salvation!
Proclaim the Good News of our Lord Jesus Christ with shouts of acclamation!
