I will sing for joy in God,
explode in praise from deep in my soul!
He dressed me up in a suit of salvation,
he outfitted me in a robe of righteousness,
As a bridegroom who puts on a tuxedo
and a bride a jeweled tiara.
For as the earth bursts with spring wildflowers,
and as a garden cascades with blossoms,
So the Master, God, brings righteousness into full bloom
and puts praise on display before the nations.

Quietly waiting in joy, this third Sunday in Advent, and linking for the first time with Deidra and her Sunday community at Jumping Tandem:

Welcome Nancy!! So glad you joined us!! I love looking at the photos and the scriptures passages....yours are both lovely!
Beautiful, reminds me of the line from the hymn, "dressed in His righteousness alone, faultless to stand before the throne..." The Message references put a new light on familiar verses. Thanks.
Loving this.
One pink rose unfurled itself in the morning sun, here, today. Full bloom.
Beautiful, Nancy....and I love Maureen's comment with the line to that hymn. "dressed in His righteousness alone..." Hope you are having a beautiful Sunday.
Such exuberant praise in these verses -- they make me happy.
Yay! You linked up! Love it! "Bursting!"
