My God is a consuming fire
Who does meet my every need
He bounds my spirit in his pocket
As he quietly watches over me
Never again will I be alone
Or far from his eyes which see
For wherever it is I am in life
He will always be close to me
He never forsakes me a moment
Of his blessed bread to eat
For my Lord provides my supper
And the spiritual drink I need
Though around me sin abounds
Each day pulling at my senses
His spirit allows my heart to see
Through all of sin’s pretenses
For my loving God, is pure life to me
Surrounding me with angelic fences
Holding me closely each and everyday
While keeping my heart very contented.

As he quietly watches over me
Never again will I be alone
Or far from his eyes which see
For wherever it is I am in life
He will always be close to me
He never forsakes me a moment
Of his blessed bread to eat
For my Lord provides my supper
And the spiritual drink I need
Though around me sin abounds
Each day pulling at my senses
His spirit allows my heart to see
Through all of sin’s pretenses
For my loving God, is pure life to me
Surrounding me with angelic fences
Holding me closely each and everyday
While keeping my heart very contented.
Being contented with Gods love
