My cup overflows
Only goodness and steadfast love
shall follow me all the days of
my life... Psalm 23:5,6
There is always something 'over,'
When we trust our gracious Lord;
Every cup is overflowing,
His great rivers all are broad.
Nothing narrow, nothing sparing,
Ever springing from His store;
To His own He gives full measure,
Overflowing, evermore.
There is always something 'over,'
When we, from the Father's hand,
Take our portion with thanksgiving,
Praising for the path He planned.
Satisfaction, full and deepening,
Fills the soul, and lights the eye,
When the heart has trusted Jesus
All its needs to satisfy.
There is always something 'over,'
When we tell of all His love;
Unreached depths still lie beneath us,
Unscaled heights rise far above:
Human lips can never utter
All His wondrous tenderness,
We can only praise and wonder,
And His name forever bless.

He who did not spare his own Son,
but gave him up for us all--
how will he not also,
along with him,
graciously give us all things?
Romans 8:32
Reader, look at the verse at the top,
Surely, only does God shower us
with goodness and steadfast love.
Then the verse at the bottom:
He who did not spare his own Son,
will graciously give us all things.
We don't have to wait until we die and
go to heaven, we can receive from Him
in the moment so that, Our cup overflows...
