What is it that anguishes you?

By Tyrell L. Samuels

What is it that anguishes you? What keeps you down? 

If I could scarcely please the Lord, 

all would be right with me. 

Alas, Christ has did it, 

He has lived the perfect life. 

And He has granted His life to me, 

and now I can please the Lord. 

What else matters in this otherwise vain life 

other than pleasing the Lord? 

He is God and He is Creator 

and if all is right with Him and I, 

then all is right with me. 

All that caused me ill and gloom has been expunged on the cross. 

This is Joy, this is joy...but joy awaits me still,

For joy I now live, for all is right with me.
