IT IS NOT TOO LATE TO START AFRESH

The Psalmist realised that his ways were not right;

The Lord’s Statutes, he had not kept in full sight.

He knew his life was not greatly blessed at all;

He had failed to hear and heed the Divine call.

 

He felt ashamed when he reads the Scriptures;

He had not made God’s Word his treasures.

He was sad as he pondered the Commandments;

He feared deeply the LORD’s abandonment.

 

He decided that he would address his spiritual lack;

He determined that he would not be laid-back!

He would take time to learn God’s righteous judgments;

He would earnestly seek mercy and holy atonement.

 

He believed that it was not too late to start afresh;

He would read the LORD’s word and be refreshed.

He looked forward to the day when he can offer praise;

The LORD would show compassion, mercy and grace!
