I had prayed my story and thought about my story but I had never written it in a serious, emotional form. In a class on Bible study methods, the assignment after studying about the Psalms was to write one. The result, for me, was my tribute to God. My story.
Praise to the God of Love
Praise to the God of Life
Who from birth to Life holds us
From birth to death she lived the life
From birth to death she lived.
Thinking, “ Its up to me.”
She said, “I am in control.”
And she walked.
Praising no one save herself
She worked and she played
Pages turn
Storm clouds came and went
Sunshine came and disappeared
There was famine and there was feasting
Calling for answers from One she didn’t know
The One answered who knew her well
The One who loved her took control
When she called for help from One she didn’t know
Pages turn
Storm clouds come and go
Sunshine comes and disappears
There is famine and there is feasting
Praising God
For work and for play
Knowing, “Its up to Him.”
Knowing, “My God is in control.”
She dances
From birth to death she lived a life
From death to life she lives
Praise the God of Love
Praise the God of Life
Who from birth to Life holds us
