The Wages of Worry

See joy all around
resting in the lord
singing praises
to the one who made the earth
to our God and king

Letting go of our daily struggle
renewing ourselves
only in him

The wages of worry
leaving us anxious
sapping our strength
keeping us
from the peace of God

Turning them over
at his altar
leaving our worries
that we may walk in his light
