BECAUSE I AM...
Chosen
He makes the sun to shine on me in the rain.
And the eclipse of the moon during the middle of the night.
He gives me the words of truth.
And the wisdom of making the right choice.
He makes me wear the armor of righteousness.
And the shield of love.
He lets mine enemy know that I will fight the battle.
And still be left standing.
He gives me comfort in the darkest hours.
I will not be left blind.
Chosen.
To spread his words of salvation.
Because I am...
His
COMFORT FOR MY SOUL
In the Lord, there is comfort for my soul.
I can pray and all things he knows.
He hears my prayers and understands my sorrow.
He heals my pain and gives me hope on tomorrow.
In the Lord, there is comfort for my mind.
He is there for me when no one else is.
I can hear his voice saying peace be still.
Comfort for my soul.
I can feel his presence.
Comfort for my soul.
His love is filled with essence.
In the Lord, there is comfort for my soul.
I can pray and all things he knows.
He hears my prayers and understands my sorrow.
He heals my pain and gives me hope on tomorrow.
Comfort for my soul.
And healing to my weary body.
Comfort for my soul.
Yes, the Lord is comfort for my soul.
