Shine Upon My Face
Christ the Saviour - Byzantine Icon Make your face shine upon your servant, and teach me your statutes. Psalm 119:135 Look upon me, for in Your sight I am refreshed. In You darkness has no stronghold. You are light and Your gaze is lovely. I stand enthralled in the glory of Your majesty. I am but a single pebble in the sand, yet You know me and have shaped me. Your words, Your decrees, I long to learn, that only Your light, divine, will shine upon my face, casting out every shadow. Lord, teach me to stand upright, when my enemies wage war and You are my hope, first and last, forever in victory. copyright 2023 - Donald P James Jr https://www.amazon.com/stores/Donald-P.-James-Jr./author
