Boundary Lines

The lines have fallen for me in pleasant places; indeed, I have a beautiful inheritance. 

Psalm 16:6


I look all across

the landscape of life

and I stand amazed

at what I find


God has given good

to me at every turn

and all that I should

do is praise Him in return


The inheritance in Christ

is mine now and forever

and that duty that is mine

is to stay faithul in each endeavor


I see all around me

a pleasant, healthy land

as eternity stretches before me

I take the bounty from God's hand


I don't deserve it

it is all mercy and grace

I am a sinner who

fall before my Savior's face


The beautiful things I know

are what God gave

and the story I now must show

is how He came to save
