PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Let our Lord, the Christ, be magnified

according to the Psalmist's declaration.

In Him, forever saved, we will abide

in joys eternal, without least cessation.

We have been, often and sorely, tried

by subtle worldly and carnal temptation.

But Jesus Christ, our Lord, has sanctified

us to and for our sacred destination.

In faith, His promises are verified.

I testify herein and well assured:

He is our souls' delight and exultation

and I have found such.spiritual delectation:

the Joy of the Orthodox Church's Faith, the Common Salvation,

which is and shall always be my soul's chiefest exultation 

among the redeemed, the Orthodox Church, that great congregation,

wherein my Prayer Rope finds its starward inclination.

Starward, an Orthodox Christian
