Poem#93 Contentment Holy
1st Peter, Romans 7, Philippians 4, Hebrews
The devil fools us into thinking we can have more than given
Trying to convince what God’s already given us isn’t enough
That’s what the serpant of old told Eve before she bit the Fruit
Mankind has been wondering in search of more than needed
Trying to find our own Worth in a World that will never be content
Storing up treasure that will be lost forever as this earth fades away
Hope we will understand one day how God truly sees Our Worth
While we’re still breathing the Breath Lord Jesus put into our lungs
So that His image could come alive & see His face upon reflection
While we’re searching for the latest happy craze working until death
The Lord came down from His throne to climb a hill to be on a Cross
So all the World could see He’s what we’ve been searching to find
If we could learn to be content in being Holy because God’s Holy
If only being content with Grace wasn’t so hard for us to achieve
For us to finally be satisfied in what we have in Jesus
Holy is Our God that saw Our worth in being Holy so died for Us
Through His Goodness, He’s teaching what it means to be Holy
That we may learn to be content in being Holy through His Word
The devil doesn’t get the last word, we do when we tell him no
That we’re content in saying the Holy Name of Jesus over & over
Through the praises spoken in worship finding contentment Holy
Be Content in the presence of God doesn’t get better than Our Jesus
Praising the King of Kings who’s Lord of All that’s our Treasure found
Being Holy Treasure of God proclaiming Jesus is My Love as He loved
