Thieves and Things

"Thou art my Portion, O Lord: I have said that I would keep Thy words.... The bands of the wicked have robbed me: but I have not forgotten Thy law.... I am a companion of all them that fear Thee, and of them that keep Thy precepts" (Psalm 119:61,63).

Bands of thieves that come to steal
Can only take so much,
For things that are forever real
Those robbers cannot touch.

My greatest Treasure is the Lord,
My Portion now and ever,
From Whom there is no power, sword,
Or robber who can sever.

My heritage is thus secured
In fellowship with those
Who fear the Lord and keep His Word,
Whom thieves cannot oppose!
