Life Above The Clouds

I sing praises to your name
Incense toward the heavens
I walk in path of righteousness
Declaring your glorious kingdom

My life filling with turmoil
I search for truths and virtue
A fire of persecution surrounds me   
Traversing darkness toward your light

I call upon your name
For peace excelling all thought
Within your spiritual arms I rest
From all my daily trials

One day earth will be a paradise
And suffering will be no more
Everyone will love their neighbor
Peace and security will prevail

Life above the clouds I discern
God established kingdom reigns
The prince of peace rule as king
Soon on earth as it is in heaven

Glad you like it. I felt the need to express what I felt from God’s generous spirit
talking to him in prayer is comforting.
thanks for the five

Hello Barbara

This is a beautiful prayer you have here. You have expressed things I’m feeling too.

‘One day earth will be a paradise
And suffering will be no more
Everyone will love their neighbor
Peace and security will prevail

Life above the clouds I discern
God established kingdom reigns
The prince of peace rule as king
Soon on earth as it is in heaven’

Can’t wait for the day, it is on earth as it is in heaven. I say amen and amen.

Yours, Deelilah
