The LORD thy God in the midst of thee is mighty; he will save, he will rejoice over thee with joy; he will rest in his love, he will joy over thee with singing.
— Zephaniah 3:17 (KJV)
There is a song of delight sung over you,
O precious child of grace.
It rises with exuberant joy—
golden, gem-filled notes
of love, mercy, grace, forgiveness,
royal heirship, and heavenly delight.
No song of disdain or condemnation
echoes over your life,
for those are only the lies of the accuser,
the ancient enemy of our souls.
Listen closely, and remember:
though we walk this earthly pilgrimage
by faith and not by sight,
a song of delight is being sung
over every single believer.
So listen.
Rest in its melody.
Rejoice with all your heart.
For our Savior—
the Mighty One who saves—
is singing songs of delight
over you.
