written by Daniel Piper
Oh Lord, I praise You forevermore.
I do not deserve the blessings You have bestowed upon me.
I have been chosen – called to be a child of the King.
In training and discipline the Lord treated me as His own.
I am a prisoner of the Lord.
No matter where I go, the Lord gathers me into His hands.
His Spirit is watching over me, dwells in me, and goes before me.
I have been caught up in the winds of Heaven.
Even though my feet are here on Earth,
my mind and soul do not belong in this place.
The voice of the Lord is my home.
His words are a light and a path even when darkness is all around me.
I will not turn to the left or to the right.
My eyes and my feet only go where my home is…
“For you bless the righteous person, LORD, You surround him with favor as with a shield.” – Psalm 5:12
