I Am A Daughter Of Ruth

 I hope in your word because it is truth..

Till eternity ends, I am a daughter of Ruth.

At midnight I rise, to give God some praise..

For in the shadows of doubt,

I am always amazed.

Once I was afflicted and smitten with rage..

And the pride in my heart,

 was my prison and cage.

Like a bottle in the smoke,

I was exhausted and drained..

But mercy came calling,

from heaven's own slain.

I press on from the womb,

of the course of the Lord..

To show myself approved,

without fear and discord.

How sweet are the words,

of the promises of God..

To sustain me in seasons,

for great is my reward.
