Poem of a Psalm 42
In the pain when I am cast down,
In my life, tempted by strife,
I still seek my God, while He can be still found,
For His name, I am ready to take the knife,
With which my enemy wants to destroy me,
As he can only do this,
For my soul is not his to take, you see,
My soul was already given to the LORD, and eternal life promised in peace,
I lay down on my knees,
I say to my soul and mouth, to be silent,
For my trust is in the Living Water, that gives life to many trees,
Living water on which I am wholely reliant.
I labor not because I am able,
I simply give my all to the King,
His Gospel is abundant life and not a fable,
My LORD bless my faith, in order, many to your kingdom to bring!
Amen, our LORD cometh soon!
