Surrender's Sacred Sup



He awakens Me morning by morning,
He awakens My ear
To hear as the learned.
Isa.50:4






From welkin wells a love song swells
In torrents unrestrained
As mercy spills and grace refills
The cup that twilight drained

As hope renewed and gratitude
Mingle in sweet accord
To join the hymn where heavens brim
With whispers of our Lord

As we lift eyes beyond the ties
Of duty and decay
To He who writes on welkin heights
The Love Song of Today

From welkin wells a love song swells
In perfect harmony
As mercy spills and grace refills
Cups of mortality

As goodness grants deliverance
Today’s ‘Never Before’
Unveils a feast upon the east
Gaze is a troubadour

Joy is reborn, from morn to morn
God wakens us to heed
His Faithfulness: He promises
To satisfy our need

From welkin wells a love song swells
Surrender’s sacred sup
As mercy spills and grace refills
The cup that faith lifts up

Lam.3:22-27
Through the Lord’s mercies we are not consumed,
Because His compassions fail not.
23They are new every morning;
Great is Your faithfulness.
24“The Lord is my portion,” says my soul,
“Therefore I hope in Him!”

25The Lord is good to those who wait for Him,
To the soul who seeks Him.
26It is good that one should hope and wait quietly
For the salvation of the Lord.
27It is good for a man to bear
The yoke in his youth.
