The revelation of God is perfect, it pulls our lives together.
And the signposts of God are clear and point the right way.
God’s life maps are right, leading us to joy,
His directions are plain and will make your day.
The reputation of God is as pure as gold,
His reputation has a lifetime guarantee.
And the decisions He makes are accurate,
Right down to the ninth degree!
God's Word is better than a diamond,
Better than any precious gem.
And better than fruit in season.
Much better than all of them.
But wait-there’s more:
His word warns us of danger,
And points us toward hidden treasure.
If He didn’t, how would we find our way?
Or know when we were causing displeasure.
Wipe the slate, God, let me start the day afresh,
And keep from doing stupid things.
Don’ let me think I can take over from You,
Remind me that I don’t pull the strings.
After all that, I can start the day fresh,
Scrubbed clean of all sin residue!
These are the words that come from my mouth,
The words I chew on and pray to You
Please accept them when I place them before You,
My Altar, my Rock, my through and through.
