Psalm 73 (But then one day)

                                   

Was it for nothing that I kept my heart pure?

And kept myself from doing wrong?

All I get is trouble all day long.

 

Every morning brings me pain

As I try to understand why the wicked prosper

 

But then one day I went into your sanctuary

Oh God

I found that you had wiped my troubles all away.

That my present life was only just a dream --

A speck into eternity.

And you turned me to your truth--your love.

 

I belong to you

You hold on my right hand and guide me in your ways.

Whom have I but you?

Whom have I but you?

You are enough

 

Because that day I went into your sanctuary

Oh God

I found that you had wiped my troubles all away.

That my present life was only just a dream --

A speck into eternity.

And you turned me to your truth--your love.

 

All I desire is you

My health may fail

My body weak

But you remain my strength

Lord, you are my only strength

 

Because that day I went into your sanctuary

Oh God

I found that you had wiped my troubles all away.

That my present life was only just a dream --

A speck into eternity.

And you turned me to your truth--your love.

 

I will tell the world of this love you have for me.
